Step 1

In a heavy-bottomed saucepan, heat the milk on med-high. Stirring constantly until it starts to a rolling simmer.

Step 2

Reduce the heat to medium. Add the lemon juice 1 tablespoon at a time, in 1-minute intervals. Continue stirring constantly.

Step 3

Continue cooking until the mixture curdles. Stir constantly till the mixture has separated completely, this should take just a few minutes. There will be a green liquid on the bottom and thick curdles on top. Remove from the heat. This should happen within a few minutes.

Step 4

Lay a sieve with cheesecloth over a large bowl. Pour the curd mixture into the sieve. Let it strain and cool for about 15 minutes.

Step 5

Transfer curds to a food processor and process until curds have come together and are totally smooth and creamy. It will take around 3-4 minutes. Keep going if your cream cheese is grainy.

Step 6

Add salt and taste. Add more if you want more flavor. Now is also a good time to add herbs, garlic or any other flavors you like.

Step 7

This cream cheese must be stored in the fridge. I always use it within 7 days but can last as long as up to 2 weeks.
