Serves: 4
Ingredients
- 1 quart goat's milk (NOT ultra pasteurized)
- ⅓ cup freshly squeezed lemon juice
- ½ teaspoon sea salt
Instructions
- Heat the goat milk in a non-reactive pot to 180 degrees. Remove from the heat and stir in the lemon juice. Let stand for 10 minutes and then strain through several layers of cheese cloth. Gently squeeze out excess liquid and let hand over a pot for an hour for remaining liquid to drain. Gently squeeze one more time and then turn the cheese out into a bowl. Stir in the salt and then shape into a 3-1/4-inch ring mold, pressing the chess down into a firm round. Gently remove the ring mold and wrap with plastic wrap to refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving. May be frozen.
