Cream Cheese



Given the reference to yoghurt in the title of this blog I thought we should infact include some. However don't get your hopes too high up, its not woven, but made into cheese...

We lined a sieve with a piece of thin cloth (an Ikea napkin I think) and poured the yoghurt in, rested the sieve over a pan and put the whole lot on the handy little shelf under the stairs (a very cold place in our house. By the next morning the whey had run off into the pan below and we were left with cheese in the cloth.

The cheese was a bit tart for our liking, but I think this was mainly due to the yoghurt we used - the next plan is to find some milder yoghurt and have another go. Maybe we will make the yoghurt ourselves first and then we can determine the acidity of it.
