Homemade Ricotta Cheese
- 4 cups whole milk {please please please use whole milk}
- 2 tsp salt
- 1 Tbsp lemon juice
- Cheesecloth
- Line a sieve with double layered cheese cloth and set over a bowl.
- In a heavy pot, bring your milk and salt to a simmer over medium heat.
- Once it begins to simmer, add the lemon juice. Simmer 1-2 minutes until the curds form.
- With a slotted spoon, scoop the curds into your cheesecloth. Let drain for a few minutes. The curds will still look pretty wet which is totally fine!
- Transfer the curds into a small bowl; cover and refrigerate until ready to use.
