That’s what you get when adding acidity (vinegar or lemon juice) to milk: soft cheese (ricotta) and whey. On YouTube you can find many ways so here just the basic formula in % so it’s easy to scale: -100 % Milk(with or without additional cream) -3% white vinegar (tasty!) and or lemon juice -0.17% salt Heat up milk to ~88C, stir constantly don’t let it boil! Add vinegar and slowly stir till curd builds up. Sift through (wet) cheesecloth. Let it drain for ½ -1h. Keep cool in fridge. I drained it for an hour and it became a little too dry/hard for my taste. So next time I will do shorter as well as add a little of the whey to the ricotta container to have moist environment. The whey can be used for any cooking or baking providing flavour and nutrients and should not be wasted. Why not just buy one? Here this is crazy expensive (and you don’t want to have any add ons), furthermore I want to bake with whey. #ricotta #hombaker #hkig #hksourdough #shatinfood #852food (at Sha Tin, Hong Kong) https://www.instagram.com/p/ClIES8DI2vM/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Yesterday I found fresh pandan leaves to buy. Not a usual item in this part of Asia. It not only brings a green colour but also a nice flavour. I’m absolutely free styling with proportion since I never used them before. Just cut into small pieces , in a mixer with fluid and sieve the mass. The green fluid goes into my next Gugelhupf bake and the remain is boiled with a bit of ginger and coconut sugar to prepare a tea. #hombaker #pandan #sourdoughbaking #gugelhupf #shatinfood #hkig #852food (at Sha Tin, Hong Kong) https://www.instagram.com/p/CV_mDgxD7EG/?utm_medium=tumblr
