INGREDIENTS

INSTRUCTIONS

In a large stock pot, add the water. Add enough salt to the water until it
tastes like saltwater. Bring the temperature of the water up to about 120
to 130 degrees, until the touch of the water is like hot bath water. Place
a colander in the water. Crumble the cheese curd into the water. Using a
wooden spoon, stir the mixture until the curd starts to pull. Using your
hands or a spoon, pull the cheese until it begins to hold shape. It's like
pulling taffy. Do not over pull the cheese because the end product will be
rubbery. If the cheese hardens to soon, dip it back in the water and repeat
the pulling process. After the desired weight is achieved, dip the cheese
in an ice bath. The cheese can either be stored in salted water or rolled
in plastic wrap. If you want to flavor the cheese, add the flavorings
during the pulling process. Rub your hands with the herbs and garlic and
work them into the cheese. This recipe yields about 1 pound of cheese.
