Homemade cheese is a delicious dish made from dairy products. The process of making such cheese is quite laborious, but the result will not disappoint. The secret of the recipe lies in the melting of the curd with butter and eggs. Immediately after cooking, the dish is not usable, as it must be pressed. We will put the finished cheese under a heavy press for a day and only after that we will be able to enjoy our creation.
