    I soooooooooo appreciate this information. Far too many people tell you that you have to use an acid such as vinegar or lemon juice and rennet. Go figure, I can "cut the curd" without rennet! This is wayyyyyyyyyyyy more practical!!!! I set my raw milk out as you said and sure enough it became firm and gelatinous. Now I'm heating it on low flame after cutting the curds and need to remember the next step!

    Thank you for this video. I’ve been looking for something like this for a while. I think you said you used a gallon is that right? You didn’t end up telling everybody how many cups of cottage cheese was produced in the end even though I know it’s healthier. I still want to know how much is going to cost me and how much I get.and then I’m assuming you saved the buttermilk? For other things? How much buttermilk did you get. And my last question is did you say you strained all the creamy fat off the top of the raw milk before you did this?

    Awesome! I'm home with Mom at the moment and she LOVES cottage cheese. I thought I'd see how you could make it at home, and this was a great demonstration! Its impressive how you use all of the components of the raw milk to make different things.
    Will this technique work with pasteurized milk, or only with raw milk? What do you like to do with the whey? :)

    • @TheNealsHomestead
      @TheNealsHomestead  4 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      I think ut will work with pasteurized milk, but you probably should add a starter, such as yogurt to help it along.

    • @GodGunsGutsandNRA
      @GodGunsGutsandNRA 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      If you use pasteurized milk, you MUST use a starter culture because pasteurized milk does NOT have any GOOD bacteria in it. Pasteurized milk left out for 3 day would turn rancid!

    Did you add anything to the milk before you let it sit for several days? I have a pot of 2 gallons of milk that has sat for 2 days but it is only slightly curdled on the top layer. And it looks bubbly/bumpy not smooth and flat like yours? I'm not sure if I missed something?

I've tried it 2 times. Is it better to let the milk age in the fridge for a few days then let it out on the counter?

    • @foxonthefarm7260
      @foxonthefarm7260 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      straining raw milk allows you to assess the milk for any signs of mastitis and inspect for foreign material.

    • @gemcanyonproductions5660
      @gemcanyonproductions5660 ปีที่แล้ว

      Because when cows are milked there might be a cow hair fall into the milk or alfalfa from her dinner might blow in. Straining just ensures you have nothing but milk in the final product.
