Homemade Italian Hard Cheese you
Homemade Italian Hard Cheese you can make at home, right now, without rennet with what you have in your kitchen.
This two ingredient homemade Italian Hard Cheese (Ricotta Salata) is delicious especially when smoked.
So easy to make and no special tools or ingredients needed.
Ingredients:
Whole milk (NOT UHT pasteurized) and or whey from making another cheese.
1/4 cup Vinegar
Tools:
Pot
Slotted Spoon
Cheese Cloth
Basket or cheese form. A small salad spinner basket works as does a small plastic food container with several small holes drilled in it.
A jug of water or canned goods to "press" the cheese.
Small electric smoker (this could be done on a bbq with one side shut off, the lid up and the cheese under a tin foil "tent")
Clean and sanitize your equipment by boiling for 5 minutes
Carefully bring milk up close to a rolling boil. Stirring often and making sure not to scald the milk. Medium Heat and patience wins the day here.
Once the milk is about to froth and you see it start to "roll" add 1/4 cup white vinegar to the center of the milk and the with your slotted spoon stir slooooowwwwllllly once around the pot.
Remove from heat, cover and let stand for 1 hour.
Carefully lift or strain the curds out of the whey, keeping the whey for pasta, baking, soups etc.
Once your curds are in the cheese cloth lined form, press with a weighted object for 15 minutes or so and the carefully flip the Italian Hard Ricotta Salata Cheese and press over night. A lot of whey will be expelled so place in sink.
Next day, remove from the form and salt all sides of the cheese with a non iodized salt.
Salt it once or twice a day for 3-4 days while letting it stand on the counter to air dry and form a rind.
After 4-5 days smoke carefully over low heat with your favorite wood and enjoy grated over pasta or on a charcuterie board.
