Fresh Goat Milk Ricotta
Homemade ricotta from your own goat milk is on a completely different level. Takes 30 minutes and needs only acid and heat to transform milk into fresh cheese.
Ingredients
🌱 From Your Homestead
- fresh goat milk (1 quart)
🛒 From the Store
- white vinegar or lemon juice
- salt
How to Make It
- Gather your ingredients: fresh goat milk (1 quart), white vinegar or lemon juice, salt.
- Prep your homestead ingredients — wash, chop, and measure: fresh goat milk (1 quart).
- Don't stir after adding acid — let the curds form undisturbed for 5 minutes. Agitating them makes smaller, rubbery curds instead of large silky ones.
- Cook for approximately 30 min. Adjust to taste and serve 4 portions.
- Plate, enjoy, and share with your household!
