Try not to buy ingredients in supermarkets, there is a risk that they will irreparably spoil the whole dish. This is due to the fact that they are fat-free and contain various impurities that can interfere with the quality of your homemade cheese.

Pay special attention to the choice of cottage cheese and milk. It is advisable to buy it in the suburbs or from trusted merchants in the market. If it is not possible to buy on the market, then take it in the supermarket with the highest percentage of fat content. Also pay attention to the price, very cheap cottage cheese raises a question about its contents.

If you buy on the market or from your hands, pay attention to the smell of cottage cheese and milk, if there is an extraneous smell, do not take it. This will greatly affect the taste of your dish.

If you often burn dishes in a saucepan, then do the so-called water bath. This is a method when two pans of different sizes are taken. Water is poured into a large saucepan and brought to a boil.

After that, the smaller one with cottage cheese is placed in it and this is how the dish is prepared. This method warns against burning, and as a result, the possibility of spoiling the dish.

Step 1: Prepare the cheese curd.

The cottage cheese must be transferred to a bowl and thoroughly knead it with a fork to break up all the lumps and give the product a uniform consistency. Then add baking soda to the cottage cheese and mix it well again, without ceasing to knead it with the cloves of a fork. Then pour milk into the mass it is advisable to use a homemade product) and mix thoroughly.

Step 2: Heat the cottage cheese and add the rest of the ingredients.

The resulting mass is transferred to a clean saucepan and put on a slow fire. Gradually heat the contents in this way. At the same time, it is necessary all the time stir curd with milk. This can be done with a regular spoon or a wooden spatula: as you wish. As soon as you see that the mass begins to melt, acquiring a uniform consistency, you need to add salt to taste (about a teaspoon will be enough), as well as butter. Don't stop mixing the ingredients. Also, any spices and additives according to your individual taste and desire can be added to the melting cottage cheese. For example, you can add 1-2 cloves of crushed garlic or a mixture of dry herbs for aroma and additional flavor. Simple dried dill, chopped paprika, or cumin seeds work well. Those who like the taste sensations "sharper" can add a ground mixture of peppers or plain black. Again, stirring well, bring the mass to complete dissolution. As soon as you observe a uniform smooth consistency of the contents in the pan, it can be removed from the heat. Pouring the resulting cheese hot in plastic containers or in other containers at your discretion.

Step 3: Serve Yantar homemade processed cheese.

We cool the mass a little under natural conditions (at room temperature), after which we hermetically close the container and send it to the refrigerator. Within an hour and a half chilled processed cheese can be used to make fragrant sandwiches, smear on salted crackers and use in a different way as you like. Often, such a product turns out to be even tastier than its analogue, which is sold in stores and produced by production. And the thing is that you use only natural products and do not use any food additives, flavor enhancers and substitutes for it. And not every manufacturer can boast of the same quality. Yes, and you can be one hundred percent sure of the usefulness of homemade cheese! Bon Appetit everyone!

In such cheese, while heating with other flavors and spices, you can add finely chopped ham or salami. You can also add cheese with any ingredients you like. Inspiration can be obtained on the shelves of the same stores. Look: what ingredients fill the tastes of industrial processed cheeses and make an analogue at home. You can also use your imagination and create absolutely unique variations.

Processed cheese prepared on your own can be stored at low temperatures, unopened, for 5 to 7 days. In this regard, the dish can be prepared for future use and always be "fully armed".

You can decorate it with sprigs of fresh herbs and sprinkle with a little dry ground paprika. It can also be poured while still hot into a figured container (or mold), previously lined with cling film and after freezing, turn it over onto another flat plate and pull a little on the edges of the film.
