This was exactly the Queijo Fresco recipe I was looking for made by many Azorean Portuguese and not just.
Best Queijo Fresco in the world, eaten in all Portugal continental and islands.
I grew up eating it, now I want to make it myself.
Thank you for showing me how to make it. 😘💕

Hi Nancy, I have been doing this cheese for quite some time because I absolutely love it. I bought my cheese molds through Amazon, they are much better than the mold you use (which I used before as well) because they are like baskets which makes it easier to pour the liquid out. I just lift the mold and pour the water left in the bowl. These molds that I bought come in a set with different sizes. I love it. Check it out, beijinhos

My favorite, I was scared to make it lol, thank you Nancy! :)

I might have put too much rennet (1 tablet for a gallon of milk). The milk immediately curled. It was an incredible small yield, like yours except I used double the milk.

Also, isn't the liquid that stays behind whey? If so, it should not be thrown out as one can make a ricotta cheese out of it.

Looks delicious! Will try it this week. Thank you Nancy!

[carmelitalopes]

Nancy where did you buy the rennet? Is that animal or plant based?

[BoldandGraceful]

For this amount of milk how much rennet pill will I need?
This brings back so much memories 🤗

[brazilian-lady]

Looks good. Thank you for sharing. Where do you buy the Rennet ??

[tonyagoncalves]

I just saw this recipe- can I add lemon juice instead of the liquid rennet? I’m Italian and we make cheese pastries for Easter so I wanted to try your cheese recipe. Let me know... thanks Nancy💕
