Learn To Make Cheese

If you thought cheesemaking with older children would be too difficult, think again.  If they’re old enough to boil water, then you’ll enjoy this simple cheese making activity.  The fresh cheese result is great on salads or crackers.

Here’s the could-not-be-simpler recipe.  The detailed instructions are after the jump.

• One quart Milk, preferably whole milk, but 2% works as well.
• 3-5 tablespoons of lemon juice, lime juice, or vinegar (I prefer vinegar, but each will give you a slightly different result in both flavor and texture.  Not a lot, but slightly.) You may use more if you deem necessary in the process.
• Optional: A pinch of chopped sage, dill weed or basil to flavor your cheese.
• Optional: A teaspoon of salt.
