After learning about cheese for several weeks, today the girls helped me make (and of course, eat)
le fromage! We heated
du lait de vache, added
du vinaigre, watched it curdle, and then strained it through
une étamine. It was simple and
délicieux. Here is a link to the recipe in case anyone wants to try their hand at cheese making at home: http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/ina-garten/homemade-ricotta-recipe.html.
Merci to
Ina Garten for this recipe!
Clockwise from top left: the milk boiling, the milk curdling, straining the milk, and, finally, eating the fruits of our labor on crackers.
Miam, miam! C'est bon, le fromage!
