    Recipe Introduction


    Tastes like Ricotta or cream cheese and may be use in any
    recipe calling for either.

    List of Ingredients




    1/4 Rennet tablet (Junket), available in most grocery stores
    near the gelatin section. It is the enzyme, Rennin.
    2 quarts warm water
    5 1/3 cups instant powdered milk (or 3 cups non-instant dry
    milk)
    1/2 cup buttermilk


    Recipe



    Dissolve Rennet tablet in warm water. Add instant powdered
    milk and mix well. Add buttermilk and mix well. Cover and
    keep at room temperature until set (about 5-10 hours). Pour
    into cheesecloth covered strainer, close the cheesecloth,
    and squeeze out as much whey as possible. The whey may be
    saved for use in bread. Place the cheese in the refrigerator
    until well chilled (usually overnight). Knead cheese until
    the texture is smooth. Cheese will freeze well for up to 6
    months. (Makes about 1 lb.)
