      Do something with the whey!

    • @BloodyAngel88
      @BloodyAngel88 6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Fun fact: The protein in whey apparently makes it great for soapmaking as well. :)

      My brother has made paneer before. Paneer is much easier if i remember right. I think he just added lemon juice to whole milk and let it curdle and then strained it in a cheese cloth and weighted it down to compact it into a slab.

    i am a cheesemaker from switzerland and i'm alternately laughing and crying.
    laughing because of the buns ;-)
    crying because of the mistakes you made to do mozzarella.
    here are some tips for your whey better mozzarella
    first of all, if you want good mozzarella, pour the citric acid water mixture slowly in the milk, which should be stired all the time, at this phase. those chunks are not good later on.
    second please also stir the milk when you pour the rennet in your milk and also do it not as fast, but faster than the citric acid.
    third one is cutting the jelly-like thing (gallerte) in about 15mm, yes millimeters it's whey better than the imperial stuff ;-), slices or better cubes.
    nr. fur, let it rest for 15 min before you slowly start to stir, take a ladle, at best with some holes in it, and start slowly to stir it from one end of the pan to the other. if the cubes are getting smaller your can stir it a bit faster and with a litte bit more strength. now you can apply heat but i would only go to 40 degrees celsius.
    nr five after you separate the whey in a very good improvised whey let it rest for about 2.5 - 3 hours at roomtemperature. after waiting tear the cheesemass down to about 5-10mm pieces. now make a saltwaterbath (saltconcentration about the same maybe a bit more like you would make spaghetti) if you want more creaminess put a bit of cream in there as well, heat this up to about 60-70 degrees celsius and than put the cheesepieces in the water and knead for at least two minutes in the waterbath, now you can make balls or other forms out of it. if you have your desired balls put it in cold slighty salted water to cool down. after it cooled down, enjoy your whey better mozzarella. and with the whey you could make a bath like cleopatra did in egypt many tousand years ago.
    have a nice day

    • @StanRaufzeil
      @StanRaufzeil 6 ปีที่แล้ว +9

      and take whenever possible a "none homogeneous milk" for more creaminess

    • @sack36
      @sack36 6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Love the play on words! It was "whey" cool! One small detail you may want to clear up. "salt concentration about the same maybe a bit more like you would make spaghetti". I don't put salt in spaghetti water so I need a different comparison. Would sea water salty work?

  • @tncorgi92
    @tncorgi92 6 ปีที่แล้ว +219

    Wouldn't it be easier to separate the whey by wrapping the whole lump in cheesecloth then pressing out the liquid?

    • @carveylover
      @carveylover 6 ปีที่แล้ว +20

      Paul Drake yes. In school that os how i learned. They also these super fancy drum type things. Where the bottom is super fine mesh and one would basically just press it through.
      That was a terrible explanation.

    • @adaode3413
      @adaode3413 6 ปีที่แล้ว +14

      As far as I'm concerned you're not supposed to press out the liquid when making mozzarella... Makes it dry or something.

    • @y0roble
      @y0roble 6 ปีที่แล้ว +7

      You’re supposed to let the curd rest in a strainer type device

    • @BerkayChief

    • @triaxelongd3337
      @triaxelongd3337 6 ปีที่แล้ว +14

      you do wrap it in cheesecloth but you dont press it, you would preferably hang it so the liquid can drain by itself. my grandma makes a lot of cheese so i‘ve seen it. a couple times.

  • @kelskitchen3673
    @kelskitchen3673 6 ปีที่แล้ว +79

    That recipe wasn't worded very well. It says to "fold over" the curds. You want to knead them, otherwise, they won't become glossy and elastic.

    • @Shmallowman
      @Shmallowman 6 ปีที่แล้ว +7

  • @Maruzella_
    @Maruzella_ 6 ปีที่แล้ว +22

    I have an old traditional Finnish recipe on soft cheese.. pretty similar to this but MUCH easier to make... you only need whole milk, buttermilk (piimä) and salt for seasoning.... let me know if you're interested :)

    Hey Barry,
    If you have a dehydrator, or if you bung it in the oven and let the liquid whey turn solid, and whiz it in your food processor, you have made your own homemade whey protein powder! We do this from time to time whenever we make our own homemade cheese here on the farm. You can add cacao powder or powdered peanut butter and other things to make it whatever flavor you want!
    Loved the video!

    I love your videos! I found your channel the other day, and I’ve watched quite a few videos before I decided to comment. Thank you for keeping it clean, and family friendly! I used to make my own paneer (which is the same as farmers cheese), with milk, and lemon juice. It was really tasty, and I quite liked it with salt and pepper on it. The only disadvantage with farmers cheese, is that you have to let the curds drain for quite some time (a couple hours), and then you have to put something like a plate under the cheese, and a plate on top of the cheese, and you put something like tins of tomatoes, or something on top of the plate to add weight. You can use weights too. Then you have to wait for what seems like forever (12 hours, or so), but putting weights on it gets much more whey to come out. If you want to make a cheese that’s a little less involved, try farmers cheese. :-)

    You can even use the whey to make another kind of cheese. They do this in Norway. It's called 'Brunost' or 'Gjetost'. It's brown in colour, with a delicious taste, which some people liken to caramel.

  • @bonnied72
    @bonnied72 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    You can use the whey instead of water when making bread, its amazing because there are still tiny particles of the mozzarella that end up in the bread. You can also freeze the whey for a few months. Its also really great for your garden if you water it down.

    I believe you're supposed to "fold and press" (or gently knead) the curds a couple of times in the salted whey heated to 85°C to 90°C (yes, it is near to boiling hot... so do it with caution) to form the desired stretch. What you did was breaking the curds making it crumbly.

    @My Virgin Kitchen Here's my tip for a stonker of a sandwich - with some of the best things produced in Europe. A nice baguette with a good crust, slice it open, use proper virgin olive oil (I prefer Spanish) as spread in the bread, add a generous amount of sliced chorizo, mozarella, coarse salt and basil. Finish with a bit more olive oil. Enjoy.

    My cat wouldn't stop watching you pouring the milk. Fascinating.

    Cost wise, if you compare it to high-end mozzarella from a specialist cheese shop, it's probably a lot cheaper. And it looks like it's a lot better than the bog-standard stuff you get in the supermarket.
    I think I might try a simpler cheese first, but I may give this a go in the future. Thanks for the video.

    For those who can't get all the ingredients, you can make this without rennet, it's mostly used to make hard cheese. The citric acid can be replaced with vinegar or lemon juice, about a cup for a gallon of milk. You don't have to have a thermometer, you just have to make sure it's only very warm, not hot and can safely keep you hand in and not burn it, and keep stirring so the milk don't burn. Keep stirring till you are sure the whey is separate from the cheese curds. Once done you strain it and then squeeze till you get as much liquid out as possible. After that you rinse and squeeze several times for about 5 min. Change the water and do the same again, then you are done. As for salt, you can add to the cheese for the first rinse and mix as best you can. I can't answer for the microwave as I have not made cheese in one. He seems to be using microwave in place of the squeezing.

    I just love your channel! I might have to try this one. Mozzarella is just awesome. Fresh sounds amazing. Have you made soap yet? LOL. I can show you how. Maybe a kitchen soap. Cheers! :)Jen

    You can even make a different type of cheese using the Whey, like they do in Norway. I can't remember the name, but it's delicious.

    Once I try this recipe and if it turns out well I’m going to try making Parmesan cheese because that’s my favourite. I’d also like to make white cheddar but I really want to make my cheddar the extra strong aged version.

    So buzzfeed did a video awhile ago about making mozzarella. To stretch the cheese, you need to use hot water to kind of melt the cheese. So you work the cheese like he did in the video, then put hot water to somewhat melt the worked cheese and stretch it. Then you can basically take the end of stretched cheese and just snap it off while stretching it to make a ball.

    The curds are still a bit loose! you can put them in hot water (play around with the temperature, it has to be just right) and it will be perfectly smooth, creamy, and uniform!
