Homemade cheese is valued simply because it is made without preservatives or chemical additives. It is very useful for its nutrients. It cannot even be compared with those cheeses that are sold in stores. A person who makes cheese for his own consumption will not add harmful substances to it.

Making homemade cheese is very easy. Boil milk and make cottage cheese out of it. Then, using a special press, bring it to a solid state. It is best to use fresh milk. The lower the calorie content of the milk, the less caloric the cheese is. So for people who do not want to gain weight, you can use low-calorie milk. This is also a plus when making cheese at home, since the cheese maker himself regulates the fat content of the finished product.

Each person makes cheese to their own taste. Some people like to cook cheese with herbs, others add more salt. By adding sugar, you can get a sweet dessert cheese.

It is not recommended to buy low-quality cottage cheese in stores for further cheese preparation, since very often instead of cottage cheese they can sell a cottage cheese product, from which cheese obviously will not be made.

From the name of homemade cheese, it immediately becomes clear what technologies are used in the manufacture of this product. Cheese producers are adopting home cooking recipes to expand the range of their products and meet the demands of a wider range of consumers.

We think it’s no secret that home-cooked meals have always been considered extremely tasty and healthy. People have been making homemade cheeses since time immemorial. Moreover, almost every housewife had her own recipe for homemade cheese. And only over time, manufacturers began to produce such cheese on an industrial scale.

Although it is unlikely that real homemade cheese can compare with store-bought cheese in its taste, aroma or consumer qualities. We invite you to take a closer look at homemade cheese. Firstly, cheese made at home will have excellent taste, nutritional and beneficial properties for the human body.

Secondly, you will receive a guaranteed quality product that will not contain preservatives, chemicals or flavoring additives, which unscrupulous manufacturers often add to cheeses. Thirdly, your own homemade cheese will cost much less than the store-bought equivalent.

And, perhaps, the most important quality of homemade cheese is that it contains all the useful elements, vitamins and organic compounds that milk contains. For example, just half a kilogram of homemade cheese will contain the same amount of protein, lactic fatty acids, vitamins, and other beneficial compounds as 4.5 liters of fresh cow's milk.

Many people are mistaken in believing that homemade cheese is difficult to make on their own. Yes, there are some specifics, but if you really want it, this won’t stop you from trying yourself as a cheese maker. To make cheese at home you will need fresh cow's milk.

In this case, the rule the more the better will work one hundred percent, because The amount of cheese directly depends on the amount of milk. The calorie content of homemade cheese also depends on the milk (from 113 Kcal per 100 grams) that you will use in making the product. The fattier the cow's milk, the higher the calorie content of homemade cheese.

The most delicious homemade cheese is made from fresh country milk, but if you don’t have the opportunity to find it, then full-fat cottage cheese is perfect. By the way, homemade curd cheese is made much faster than that made from milk. Usually homemade cheese belongs to the soft varieties, because For the production of hard cheeses, specific production equipment (press) is required.

What’s distinctive is that the future taste of homemade cheese depends only on you. When preparing, you can add to homemade cheese, in addition to salt, any other ingredients, spices, herbs or herbs, all at your discretion.
