The best way to make feta cheese at home, is with lemon and yogurt, she made with vinegar and in the end she did not washed with cold clean water, to take the bad vinegar smell also kills the bacteria with salt. Like this the feta cheese creates worms
Thank you very much - swift and direct!

Hello,I tried your method OMG it turned out just beautifully so. 👌👌👌👌👌Thank you❤️
I am so happy to hear that! Thank you for your comment 🙏
Wow great cheese looks delicious 😋.
Thank you 😋
So nobody's gonna talk about the foot?
LOL, I had to adjust my camera higher so that my phone wouldn't heat up and die in the middle of my taping and I frequently had to climb the chair, put my foot on the counter for stability and check if my phone was still recording and somehow I forgot to cut that out! This was the third time taping the video due to phone heat up! I'm learning haha and thanks for watching!
😂
Great vídeo thank you for sharing this ❤.
Thanks for watching! 🙏 ❤️
Thanks so much for your recipe of the feta, God bless you best wishes from New York.🧕🙏⛪☘️🍀💌🌹
My pleasure 😊 Thanks for watching 🙏
GREAT - Thanks - please post more Iranian recepies
Feta is the Greek Opium. As Greeks we can combine EVERYTHING with feta also NO cow milk ONLY goat milk (go full fat), nice and easy recipe
Thank you for your comment 🙏
Pls. I wish i had goat milk but if I inky have cow should I add cream or butter for more fat to make it tastier. I can't get raw milk easily in Canada or goats milk and the 'full fat' milk is only 3.75% fat.
harf nadasht merci movafagh bashi
Meri Azizam 🙏
Its delicious to watch...😋😋😋😋😋
Thank you 😋
From Max Miller... the milk is ready at 185 degrees.. then remove from heat. And thank YOu VERY Much Ms Hedyeh... you rock !
Is that Fahrenheit or celcius
Thanks for watching! 🙏 ❤️
Thanks for watching! 🙏 ❤️ And sorry I don't remember what the temp was but just when you see some bubbles add the yogurt and as soon as the milk is about to rise, pour everything else and you should be fine 👌 If you're afraid the milk will rise and spill, as soon as it's rising turn it off, pour everything then immediately turn it back on and steer to center. 👍
thanks for sharing !
My pleasure!
Thank you. I will try
Was that a foot on the counter?😂😂
Very nice
Hands down best recipe i found! Seen this other channel a guy from Australia made a greek version and it was too complicated (not traditional). And he brined/aged it for 3 months.
Thanks for sharing! Will be making this for family soon!
And i am from kuwait! Hello neighbors! We love iran! Especially the Iranian cheetos all over kuwait haha.
Thank you so much for watching and for your lovely, kind words! 🙏 ❤️ I'm glad you find the recipe easy, that's my whole point when I make food, EASY! 😊
This recipe is completely wrong. It’s not feta.
0:30 why the foot on the kitchen table? I am struggling to know why
LOL, because I had to adjust my camera higher so that my phone wouldn't heat up and die in the middle of my taping and I frequently had to climb the chair, put my foot on the counter for stability and check if my phone was still recording and somehow I forgot to cut that out!
😂
😂😂 was thinking the same but then I told myself maybe is the 📷
I am glad someone asked and we know the reason! I was also struggling to explain that lol
Hi Hedyeh, Thank you so much for this recipe. I have been looking for a Iranian Feta recipe for quite a long time and I am glad you shared your video. I had to modify the quantity a little as I used 1800g of milk and 80 g of greek yogurt. Therefore I changed to 1/4 cup of cider vinegar and 1/2 lemon. it is resting now. I see you keep it after in the brine in the fridge. Do you think I could keep it in oil (half olive and half colza) ? with herbs ?
Hi Nathalie,
I'm glad to hear this 🙏 And I'm sorry but I'm not so familiar with the oil part but herbs definitely!
Great video! Fun, clean, and to the point 👍
Question can we use white Vinagre instead?
Also what can you do with the left over milk water?
Sorry for delay! Yes you can, and my mom cook rice with the left over milk water and said it's really good, I don't know how much truth is into that! :)
Mmm, I bet it would be good to make sweet rice for dessert. 🤗. Thanks for the good idea and the recipe!
Very useful ❤thanks 🙏🙏
Thanks for watching! 🙏 ❤️
Awesome !!!!!!!!!!!!!; Thank you for the dummy proof tutorial 😊
Thanks for watching! 🙏 ❤️
Somewhat similar to Indian feta. Good one.!
Thank you for your comment 🙏 Yes, I know Feta originally comes from Greek but this is how they make it in my hometown in Iran, that is why I said inspired by Iranian cuisine. Based on the comments I am getting it is also from Russia and India and it is called something different 😜
Can’t wait to make this thank you! How long will it keep in the fridge?
Yammy!
Thanks!
Thank you!
You're welcome! Thanks for watching 😃
Hi, love your energy! How long can I refrigerate final product?
if you're adding salt to the liquid, you can refrigerate for about 7 days!
My grandma used to make foot cheese as well.
Lol😂
The result makes my mouth water 😍 I wonder if anything will come of using lactose-free and/or skim milk?
Sorry I have never tried it that way! If you do, let me know the result
Yes you can from skim milk or the best from farm food market
How pleasant to have come across your channel! I assumed by your name that you were Persian. I also named my daughter Hediyeh. A beautiful name.
Great video!!! I have a thermometer but what tempters should I boil the milk?
I believe I have said that in the video,! 🙏
wow holy cheese!
Thanks for watching! 🙏 ❤️

Hii, thank you for your video. I was wondering, is it possible to use almond milk or any other plant based milk?
Sorry for the late reply! I am sure there is a way, there are many dairy-free yogurts out there but I don't know the process of one! Sorry :(
@@hedyehskitchen7559 Ok no problem, thank you!
Great procedure, if I double the milk quantity do I need need to double the venegar & lemon?
Sorry for the very late reply and yes you do.
Thank you so much my dear I will definitely try this, is 1 gallon of milk 8 cups of milk?
1 gallon is 16 cups.
Hi there, In this video is 1 gallon of milk which is 16 cups, you can also do with 8 cups which is half a gallon but you're just gonna get less cheese out of it!
1 gallon of milk have 16 cups of 8 oz each.
Beautiful share my friend, fantastic video, nice cooking.
Like #896!
Have a nice day to you!
Thank you so much 😊
Yogurt is the key…i also use yogurt for my chicken kabob…actually it’s tavuk sis. I bring this to every BBQ i go to…always a great hit. But i dont give out my recipe secrets.🤫
Thanks for sharing that even though you will not share your secret recipe hehe!
Thank you so much for this tutorial! Have you made it with sheep's milk before? This is the type my family likes for noon o paneer. Is there much of a difference in taste between cow's and sheep's milk?
My pleasure 😊 I have never made with Sheep's Milk, I would suggest googling a recipe for that but I believe It would be the same result! 🙏
Do you use all the liquid for storage please? or do you have any left over and if so, can you use it as liquid for bread making? In Ireland we use the leftover milk from butter making (buttermilk) for making wheaten bread, which looks very like the bread in your video. Thanks so much for your video xxx
Thanks for watching! 🙏 ❤️ Yes there will be left over liquid, I don't know about bread but my aunt told me to use it when making rice and that's what I've been using the left over liquid for! Sorry I can't be helpful with the bread. Let me know if you do make it and if it works! 😊
Hi . Thank you for the recipe. It is awesome!! I just have a question. Can this recipe be used to make Bulgarian feta cheese also? Do you know what is the difference between Persian and Bulgarian feta cheese? Thank you.
Thanks for watching! 🙏 ❤️ I am not familiar with Bulgarian Feta Cheese but I googled and the different is something about butter milk, Bulgarian yogurt, Rennet Salt and Calcium Chloride, I don't know how it will turn out with those added, but I'm sure mine is similar and just very simple! Sorry I can't be in more help! 😊
Wonderful video - thank you! It's so refreshing to have someone to learn from who doesn't over complicate things. Love the simplicity of this technique! So excited to try this!!

Sorry, if this is dumb but does the yellow liquid stay at room temperature before adding the cheese or in the fridge?
Is the yellow liquid the water that was left from the cheese while making it?
At .30, was that a foot on the food board?
LOL, Yes and because I had to adjust my camera higher so that my phone wouldn't heat up and die in the middle of my taping and I frequently had to climb the chair, put my foot on the counter for stability and check if my phone was still recording and somehow I forgot to cut that out! This was the third time taping the video due to phone heat up! I'm learning haha and thanks for watching!
Okay so like why do I see a foot next to the lemon juice @0:31?

It was a nice video. Dastet dard nakone. 👍❤
Khahesh Mikonam :) Glad you liked it!
Thank you mam, how much cheese we get from 1 litre of milk?
Hmmmm 1litter is 0.26 gallon so I would say 1/4 of what you see in the video! Sorry don't know exactly but defiantly less.
Do we have to let it sit in the liquid as in alll the time?
Nice recipe!!! would I get the same result if I use goat milk?? thanks :)
Sorry I never done it with Goat cheese, but I believe it will work with any type of animal milk! Let me know how it goes if you did it. 🙏
❤️!!!
Thank you!
Another question would be how long to let it sit in the brine to see the benefit of the salt?
Hi! Why do you add the yogurt and then boil it? I have never seen that, I've only seen yogurt added at lower temperature to ferment :)
I add yogurt when it's ALMOST boiling and this is the way I was taught from back home.
In countries like Pakistan and India, yoghurt is also cooked into hot dishes- like cream, I guess
Thank you...does the milk have to be cow or one can use buffalo or goat...
Can i make creamy feta dressing for my salad with it??
Hi There, sorry I don't know the answer to that but I do put it on my salad. To make it creamier I can suggest not to wrap it very hard so the cheese could be a bit looser.
Couple quick questions please as I'm going to try this out.
1- how long does it take for the cheese to gain that typical feta salty flavor all threw the cheese in the salty brine?
2- how long once it's all completed is this healthy in the frodge?
Thanks for watching! 🙏 ❤️ I didn't put much salt in it because I don't like it that salty but more salt added to the liquid, longer you can store it for. I use up to 7-10 days. and I would say leave it in the salt water in the fridge for at least 6 hours to soak all that salt water. I have never added salt while boiling, maybe that could be a thing too if you want it very salty! Sorry hope that was helpful. 😊
It looks great and easy to make, could I use kefir instead of Yougurt? 🙄
Sorry I don't know much about Kefir but based on my research, you definitely can! It is actually called "Kefir Cheese" look up some recipes and give it try!
I believe it is much easier to make Kefir cheese! I just never had it before!
Hey its almost like paneer.... But 1 Q.... How to store it.. Means shall we store it with the liquid only in the fridge? Means the cheese will remain immersed in that salty water in the fridge till it is all used up? Or shall we discard the water...?
I have heard that it is also like paneer. This recipe was introduced to me by my mom and her cousins, we are from north of Iran, Gorgan, I believe the cheese Paneer you're referring to is Indian, however Cheese in farsi is called Paneer! and more salt you put in it more time you can store it and yes it has to be in the salty water the whole time. I usually keep it for 1 week to 10 days! you'll notice it's going bad when it start getting smelly! I hope that answered all your questions, Thank you!
@@hedyehskitchen7559 how about d salty cheese with holes in it that one gets in Iran, how do u make that? I grew up in Tehran & I remember this cheese & d freshly made naan that makes a v good breakfast, one cud buy these two just around d apt building
How long will it last ? What would be the expiry date of cheese in this water?
Sorry for a looooooooooong delay, probably got your answer but I use it for 7-10 days, more salt, longer you can store it.
What's the difference between feta/ricotta and cottage cheese?
Gureit viidioo!
Thank you 🙏
Hi
Can i use simple vinegar instead of apple cider in this recipe?
yes!
Sorry for the 2 months delay and yes 😊 🙏
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Can you give a measurement for the amount of lemon juice
In this video I put 4-5 Tablespoon of squeezed lemon and you can always add more if you're not getting the yellow color out of it! sorry for late response, Thank You!
What is the purpose of the yoghurt as it seems it doesnt sit long enough for the bacteria to do anything.
That you for your honest comment! I usually make it at night and wake up in the morning then put it in the fridge to cool and that's about 8 to 12 hours, I believe that's the right amount of time and at the end it taste %100 like pure plain yogurt!! How long you say it needs to be?
Can we use red wine or white vinegar instead of apple cider?
What else can I use instead of apple cider vinegar
Sorry for late reply, I would say double the lemon. That should do it but honestly you don't really taste the vinegar, It's so little.
Hi, can I use any vinegar for this?
Hi There, I don't know what you mean by ANY vinegar, I would recommend white Vinegar due to coloring but also not thick Vinegar.
Wow.. i make a 🧀 similar to your recipe.. but, spicy hot. Video is Spanish but ziri will translate 🤣
Thanks for watching! 🙏 ❤️ And that seems exciting! Never had a spicy cheese, will def give it a try!
Where do you store the liquid from the cheese for the 6hrs you are waiting
Thanks!
Does it taste like feta Greek cheese?
To me yes! I'm not picky lol! It may taste a bit different because of course it's homemade and does not have all the ingredients, it's a simple recipe! Also depending on the amount of salt!
@@hedyehskitchen7559 Thanks.
