cheese recipe in 30 minutes | how to make mozzarella cheese with step by step photo and video recipe. paneer or cottage cheese is a very common ingredient across india and are used for different recipes. yet there are other types of cheese used in various kind of indian recipes which are typically store-bought. one such popular cheese variation is mozzarella cheese which can be a multipurpose cheese and can be used in myriad recipes.
well, i am continuing my wednesday post of showcasing something unique other than a normal recipe. i call it cooking tips, tricks and methods recipe post. today i am presenting a simple 2 ingredients mozzarella cheese recipe. i always post lots of cheese-based recipes and i get recipe request to prepare homemade cheese. hence i thought of sharing it on my wednesday post. having said that, it wasn’t easy for me to prepare it. basically the choice of milk is very critical for this recipe. you need unhom*ogenised and pasteurised milk for most of the cheese recipe. but i wasn’t able to get unpasteurised milk or raw milk which is illegal to sell here in australia. if you do have access to raw milk, you should be using it. anyway, i would be highlighting more tips in my next paragraph.
furthermore, i would like to highlight some more tips, suggestions and variations to homemade cheese recipe. firstly, i would like to heavily emphasize on the timing and temperatures used in this recipe. you need to follow the exact timing and temperature to get the proper texture of cheese. otherwise, it may easily turn to paneer. secondly, the milk has to be full cream with 4% of fat or more. you may need to scan through the ingredients section and see the fat percentage in it. lastly, the quantity of vinegar might have to be increased depending upon the quality of milk. when i make paneer, i use a quarter cup of vinegar to spoil the milk. as the fat percentage increases, you may need more vinegar to spoil it. hence do not panic if it does not spoil completely and add more vinegar to it. also, if you have access to rennet or citric acid, you should be good using it. both rennet and citric acid give more thickness and elasticity to the cheese.
finally, i request you to check my other cooking tips, tricks, methods recipes collection with this post of cheese recipe. it mainly includes my other detailed recipes like , badam powder, aam papad, 5 things you are doing wrong in the kitchen and how to correct it, , how to make paneer at home, top 6 health benefits of mint leaf, tutti frutti, top 7 health benefits of curry leaves. further to these i would also like to mention my other recipe categories like,
