Hi there, cheese enthusiasts! Do you feel like having something really tasty that is also creamy and fresh? What if I told you that it would just take you fifteen minutes to create your own cheese at home? It is true, indeed! A few basic ingredients and a little culinary wizardry will allow you to create an impressive batch of fresh cheese that you make yourself.
Why Make Cheese at Home?
Although it can seem difficult to make cheese at home, it’s actually very simple. It’s also a lovely method to ensure that your food is fresh and natural by knowing exactly what’s going into it. The components are basic, the method is short, and the end product is mouthwatering.
What You’ll require:
Let’s Prepare Some Cheese!
First, fill the big pot with milk and bring it to a simmer over medium heat. Keep an eye on it and stir it from time to time to make sure nothing gets stuck to the bottom. The magic will begin to happen as bubbles start to develop around the edges!
After removing the heat, squeeze in some lemon juice or white vinegar. As you observe the milk start to curdle, gently stir it. This is the magical time when milk becomes cheese, my friends. At this point, we’re practically wizards of food.
Give the mixture ten minutes or so to settle. The whey, or liquid, and the curds, or lumpy particles, will separate during this period. Interesting fact: Little Miss Muffet had a good idea.
It’s time to strain the mixture after it has sat and separated. Pour the mixture through a fine strainer or cheesecloth that has been lined over a bowl. If you don’t want cheese all over your kitchen, please take your time with this step.
Pull the cheesecloth together and gently squeeze it to get some of the whey. Squeeze a little more if you prefer your cheese firmer. To taste, add a pinch or two of salt and stir. And voilà! You have fresh, handmade cheese at your disposal.
What makes this cheese so good? It is quite adaptable. You may eat it right out of the bowl, sprinkle it in a salad, or spread it over some crusty toast. I’m not passing judgment here.
Finally
Folks, there you have it! Not only is it simple to make fresh cheese at home, but it’s also enjoyable and very fulfilling. In about fifteen minutes, you may also boast to your friends that you have turned into a cheese artisan. Now, how affluent do you feel?
Thus, the next time you’re in the mood for something delicious and fresh, make your own instead of buying anything from the shop. Your family and your taste buds will appreciate it.
Cheeze on!
Dwight’s Opinion: To be honest, creating cheese at home is like to discovering a hidden level in a video game. It’s easy, enjoyable, and yields some seriously tasty results. Who doesn’t enjoy a little culinary magic, too?
Dad & fiancée exclude his daughter from their wedding after she bought a dress & shoes for it
Reddit is the place where people share stories of their life and ask fellow redditors for advice and opinion on the decision they make.
A teenage girl recently shared that her dad and his wife-to-be excluded her from their wedding and she explained the reasons behind that heartbreaking decision.
“I (f18) was always pretty close to my dad. Closer to my mom but I often visited my dad (about 3-4 times a week). A few years ago he started dating “Anna”. Anna and I always got along when my dad proposed I was happy Anna seemed like she would be a great stepmom,” she started her post.
OP said that she was overly excited and was looking forward to the wedding. She bought a dress and shoes, but then her dad told her that he and his fiancée needed to talk to her about something important.
“Well a few weeks before the wedding after I had bought everything (dress, shoes, etc) my dad and Anna said they needed to “talk to me” Anna and my dad decided to have a child free wedding which I get especially for young kids.
“Well turns out child-free means no one under 18. On the day of the wedding, I was still going to be 17 so, therefore, I’m not allowed to be at the wedding because Anna wants to stay true to the child-free rule even for the daughter of the groom and her about-to-be stepdaughter.”
Devastated, OP told her mom what her dad and Anna said to her. The mom was as heartbroken as her daughter and decided to take her on vacation so that she cheer up. At the same time, the mom told the rest of the family what her ex-husband did to their daughter. Understandably, most of them were shocked and angry.
Later, OP posted birthday pictures on Facebook and wrote, “I’m so glad my dad and Anna didn’t allow me at their wedding since I was under 18; I feel more mature since yesterday.”
“The family was freaking out asking if that was true and bashing my dad and Anna. I later got a bunch of texts from my dad and Anna calling me immature and a selfish brat and that’s why I was too immature to be at a wedding. I was talking to some friends and they said I was kinda an AH for doing that and I should have just let it go.”
Fellow redditors shared their opinions and agreed that OP wasn’t an AH for telling the family what her dad did to her.
“NTA. What kind of man doesn’t have his own child at his wedding? Anyway, they made the choice, if they believe it was the right choice they should have no issue about it being publicly known. Plus, people might well assume you weren’t there because you disapproved of his new wife or chose a vacation instead. Ensuring people know WHY you weren’t there saves your own reputation,” one person commented.
“The no children was made for you. I’m sorry but let that sink in. She made that rule to keep you out. You now know where you stand in their marriage…you don’t. I’m so sorry. NTA. I personally think it was EPIC. Harsh but epic. They deserved more than that. I would even update it with pictures of their texts,” another added.
A third wrote, “I can’t help but wonder if she purposefully pick a date before OP birthday just so she couldn’t go. If the dad & step-mom wanted to make it child free but make sure OP was there they could have made sure the date was AFTER OP birthday but to make it just 2 days before….. nah they didn’t want her there & was just trying to use that as an excuse.”
We believe the dad was not right for excluding his own daughter from the wedding.
