GERMAN CARAWAY CHEESE
|
|||
First either make Old Fashioned Farmers cheese or Old fashoined Dry Curd Cottage cheese or buy it. Serves 12 8 cups Fresh Farmhouse Cheese (recipe below) or pot cheese, or dry-curd cottage cheese |
Make sure the farmhouse cheese or Old fashioned cottage cheese is DRAINED WELL in cheesecloth. (Do not add any cream to the cheese after draining) Place the butter, baking soda, and salt in the top of a DOUBLE BOILER over SIMMERING water. When the butter is melted, add the cheese, and continue cooking, whisking occasionally, until the cheese has melted, about 1 hour. The butter and cheese will be separated.
Beat in the sour cream and caraway seeds until the mixture is blended well together. Pour into a large loaf pan or a crock. Cover, and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, until the cheese is firm. Turn out onto a serving dish, if you like, bring to room temperature, and serve.
