Cooking steps
  1. 1

    Add whey and milk to a pot and bring to a boil. Add a little salt at this point.

  2. 2

    When bubbles start to rise, add lemon juice and continue boiling without stirring until it curdles like soft tofu.

  3. 3

    Once it curdles, turn off the heat and let it cool.

  4. 4

    Strain the whey through a cheesecloth and squeeze the curds tightly to remove excess liquid.
