Directions: Heat 4 cups of Milk and in a saucepan and add 1 Tsp of Salt. Watch the Milk carefully and just before it begins to boil turn the heat off. Stir in Juice from one Lemon. Let the mixture stand for 5 minutes. Add any Fresh Herbs or Roasted Garlic (1 to 2 tbsp in total) and stir. Place a mesh strainer over a large bowl and drape a square of cheese cloth over the strainer. Pour the Milk mixture through the cheese cloth. Gather the 4 corners of the cloth and cinch them together to form the Cheese into a ball then secure with some twine (pictures below). Hang the bound Cheese over a bowl or sink (I tie mine to the faucet in my kitchen sink). Let the Cheese drip for about an hour. Give the Cheese a few squeezes to remove any extra liquid. Untie the twine and place Cheese in a bowl. Add a small pinch of Salt and mix with a fork. Gather up Cheese with clean hands and roll into a ball or log. Serve with crackers, bread or on top of salad. Sapore!
