How Does It Work?
Making Soft Cheese is fun and easy. Most soft cheeses are made with these simple steps:
- Milk is warmed.
- Cheesemaking ingredients are added.
- The milk coagulates into a single curd.
- The curd is placed into a cheesecloth and hung to drain off the whey.
- The curd is sometimes pressed to remove more whey, with salting taking place before or after this process.
- The cheese is refrigerated and is often ready to be eaten immediately.
