Impressive Creamed (Kefir) Cheese

8/11/2016

I love that look - you've seen it before too - when someone tries a new food and isn't sure she is going to like it when... eyes fly open, their face cracks into a grin and we are rewarded with that burst of surprise... "Wow! YUMmmmmmm!"

Hence, I call this "Mmmmm Kefir Cheese". It never fails to disappoint! Good with crackers, bread, or raw veggies, give this a whirl.
What you'll need:
  • One liter finished milk kefir (You can try store-bought but its best make your own. If you need a local source of live cultures, click here)
  • Cheesecloth or nut bag
  • Pinch of sea salt
  • One garlic clove, crushed
  • A handful of fresh chopped dill, or 3/4 tsp dried.
Picture
Over a bowl, pour your finished kefir through a cheesecloth or nut bag. Tie up the bag so the kefir can continue to drain into the bowl for a few hours or overnight. You will be left with a clear whey liquid in the bowl (useful for starting ferments) and a creamy curdy cheese inside the cheesecloth.  Scrape the cheese into a 250ml jar, add the salt, crushed garlic and dill, and stir well. You can consume immediately but it will taste better if you refrigerate it for at least one day.

That's it! So easy its ridiculous :)  Leave me a note and tell me how it goes for you.
