White Cheese

PORTUGUESE WHITE CHEESE
4 cups whole milk
1 tbsp salt
½ tsp powder rennet (luso coalho)
In a pot, add milk and warm up on the stove. Don’t warm the milk too much. Needs to reach 100 degrees, not any more than that. Add salt,rennet. Mix well and let the milk rest until cheese curds form. Once cheese curds are formed using a knife cut the curds in half and let it rest again for 10 minutes. To the mold, add your curds and drain the water retained on the plate. Top cheese with more salt. After a few hours, flip the cheese and top with more salt. Refrigerate overnight and perfect to eat the next day.


QUEIJO BRANCO PORTUGUÊS
4 xícaras de leite integral
1 colher de sal
½ colher de chá de coalho em pó (luso coalho)
Em uma panela, adicione o leite e aqueça no fogão. Não aqueça muito o leite. Precisa chegar a 100 graus, não mais que isso. Adicione sal, coalho. Misture bem e deixe o leite descansar até formar uma coalhada de queijo. Depois de formada a coalhada de queijo com uma faca corte a coalhada ao meio e deixe descansar novamente por 10 minutos. Ao molde, adicione a sua coalhada e escorra a água retida no prato. Cubra o queijo com mais sal. Depois de algumas horas, vire o queijo e cubra com mais sal. Leve à geladeira durante a noite e perfeito para comer no dia seguinte.

I have made this cheese a couple of different ways and it has never set really firm like yours and that quickly. I've used the tablets and liquid before. I have to look for this rennet it definitely looks like it does the job really well. Looking forward to the bread recipe it looks delicious.  Thank you Angela for sharing your recipe with us. ❤😊

How much rennet powder, if making 8 cups of milk to make the fresh cheese?
