Slowly pour the egg mixture into the hot milk, stirring continuously to prevent clumping.
4. Separate the Whey

Add 1 tablespoon of white vinegar to the mixture to help the curds separate from the whey.
Stir gently and cook for about 5 minutes until the curds are fully formed.
5. Rest the Mixture

Cover the pot with a lid and let the mixture sit undisturbed for 10–15 minutes.
6. Drain and Shape

Pour the mixture into a cheese mold or a sieve lined with cheesecloth to drain the whey.
Press the curds gently to form a compact cheese.
7. Chill the Cheese

Place a heavy weight on top of the cheese to remove excess liquid.
Refrigerate for at least 2 hours to allow the cheese to firm up.
8. Serve

Remove the cheese from the mold, slice, and enjoy.
Serving Suggestions
Spread on toast with a drizzle of honey or jam.
Add as a topping for salads or bowls.
Serve with fresh vegetables like cucumbers and cherry tomatoes.

Cooking Tips

Use whole milk for a creamier texture.
Add herbs like dill or parsley to the mixture for a flavored cheese.
Save the whey—it can be used in baking or as a protein boost in smoothies.
Ensure the curds and whey separate fully before draining.
Chill the cheese longer for a firmer texture.
