hi adam from nepal! churpi was actually made for storing the protien from the milk so it doesn't go bad, and we used to eat it for protein not for satisfaction like tobacco.
We have dried cheese in mongolia too. We usually ferment the curd and sun dry it, the acid from fermenting helps to mitigate bacterial growth. I brought some from mongolia to sweden where i live and my sisters dog loved it. Its one of his favorite snacks.
@@sabiebright4554 My family immigrated here to mostly educate us and earn a good living. Mongolia has very harsh weather and very bad air pollution so we came here.
Wait is there something different about this type of cheese that makes it safe for dogs to eat? Like am I missing something here is this some foreign thing I’m too American to understand? 😂
@@Texascowboy68 I don't think it's this cheese specifically so much as that cheese is simply one of the most inoffensive foods for a dog, and this is the most basic and inexpensive ways to make it. You don't need any specific chemicals or bacterial types - you just need milk and time. Low-fat cheeses are, to the best of my knowledge, pretty much entirely protein. There's little to no sugar which is bad for dogs since too much of it it can give them diabetes, there's no strong flavors or excess oil to upset their stomach, and milk is dirt cheap compared to an equivalent amount of meat. It's just a happy accident that dogs like cheese as much as we do, pretty much for the same reasons we do: It's a cheap, energy-dense food with few downsides.
You say that as if those of us with dogs don't regularly talk to them like they're fellow people. 🤪(I've heard the same about those people owned by cats, too, but can't speak from experience there.)
@@mnikpro The trick is to not doubt their ability to figure it out. We accidently taught our dogs to "go touch grass" by just saying it to them (and probably our body language). They now know it means to go into the yard from the deck.
my cat just got diagnosed with cancer, and honestly this video of you spoiling your dog made me feel a bit better. Thank you. Edit: Kitty is okay! He had the cancer removed and the vets think he's going to be okay!
Just want to give you some random stranger virtual hugs…I lost my kitty in 2022 to cancer, and those first few days after his diagnosis felt like a punch to the gut right from God himself…and I don’t even believe in him. Even two years later, I gotta make jokes, because it just sucks, and I’m sorry you’re going through it right now❤️
@@missdenisebee I know you've probably forgotten this, but he's actually gotten through it and the vets are pretty certain he's going to survive for a couple more years!
I made mozzarella like this once with lemon juice instead of vinegar. Surprisingly easy. Just kneading that hot gloop that will be your mozzerella can be a bit much on the hands.
Thank you, you sweet kind man. My dog has diabetes and I struggle to find treats for him that won't spike his blood sugar or break the piggy bank. This is perfect.
I love that you waved bye to your puppers, whenever I give a snack to my little friend, she always runs away to find a suitable spot to eat/chee, and I always say "Bye! I'll see you later!" I'm gonna have to start making this, my dog is spoiled, but it does hit the wallet extremely hard sometimes.
Animal stomachs are another treat your dog might actually like (beef tripe and lamb tripe .. made from unbleached “green” animal stomach lining are a treat sold in most pet stores at least where I live)
Very true, the training center and other trainers I work with will bust out tripe if we find a dog we're working with just doesn't like some of our other treats. It can be a really high value one for them sometimes
With Adam delivering Pop-Tart such thorough lectures, no doubt they will one day have a complete, encyclopedic understanding of home cooking. I'm sure when that day comes, Adam (his protégé's training complete) will retire and leave Pop-Tart to host their own home cooking show. Personally I'm looking forwards to Pop-Tart's opinion on seasoning their food bowl; not their kibble.
i tried making paneer with milk powder and it wasn't good i have to say. but i also have to admit that i never really get it to my liking to begin with.. still, the one with milk powder was just.. crumbs (mixed it in with some adhoc curry and that was fine but it essentially just dissolved)
@@fariesz6786 When it is twisted in the cheese cloth, you need to very compress it. I put it between two plates and put a full 16L bucket of oil (15KG) on top for a couple hours.
I grew up in Nepal and these are such a (human) treat there. I always carry a few bags when I come back to Canada. It’s sad that you can’t find good quality churpii here. Some Nepalese stores import it but they are not always the best quality. I have more than once longed at them in the pet food aisle.
The store-bought ones I used to get for my dog I didn't need to soak in water before microwaving. Puffed up really nicely like a ginormous popcorn. Miss you, Quito! 🥰
My immunology professor told me about how he had yak cheese in Nepal and contracted Cholera from it. Great story and still the only guy I know who got Cholera today.
I worked pet retail for nearly 7 years and am very familiar with Himalayan chews The microwave trick and “puff up like a cheeto” was word for word the same selling point I had for those things
I have never clicked on a video so fast in my life! Try making your own bullysticks Adam- it’s an interesting process! I’m happy to give pointers if needed 😄
I had idea of doing this when I looked at how my dogs fake bones are made but as I'm a little lazy didn't get round to it. Thanks Adam for the kick up the rear!
Ooohh!! I’ve been eyeing these out of sheer curiosity at the pet stores in my area for a few months now, so I’m feeling weirdly VERY excited to see this video pop up in my feed. I wasn’t expecting to find it on _this_ channel, though! 😅
Ok, at this point I've adapted this recipe 10 times for both human and dog consumption. Personally I love the stuff myself: I use 2.5 gallons of whole milk and a can of nonfat fix (total 2%milkfat) drain, press, cut into bars and bake at more like 200F for a few hours. I refrigerate these (although a week or two they'd be fine a room temp). The for the dog I cut 1ichs cubess and continue backing at low until the moisture is negligible. They are a perfect high-protein snack for me and dried out more the dog loves them and takes them back to his special place to chew them for 15 minutes. Which is all to say this is not all just dog food. I had casual cheesmongering experience before I saw this video, but altering the basic process (milkfat+-, dry time/temp +-, salt +- etc.) makes it a great recipe to play with...the only problem is now my lab and I both get excited when I open the bag. Either I'm becoming canine or "chewycheese snacks" are just panspeciesly delicious. Thanks Adam. I know you're just doing your thing now and not worrying too much about the viewership. I hate to see you less but I respect you life decisions and cheer for your wellness 49% more than I cheer for new videos. ;)
You say that the first recipe has a lot of waste, but when I was making cheese in college, I used to save the whey and break whey bread with it. It's got a really nice taste, and the whey adds a little protein to the bread, which was great for me as a vegetarian.
I hate wasting whey but I realized it makes great liquid in breads and baking. Whey pancakes were life-changing. King Arthur has great whey recipes. Last time I made greek yogurt at home I used the whey for pancakes, the accompanying pita bread and the rest was for the dog. Zero waste. That felt great. Also thank you Adam, my dog says thanks too. He's gonna love these.
if you want to minimize scalding and give yourself a margin of safety use a double boiler setup. You could use a commercial "double boiler" but the best imo is 2 big stainless steal pots (I use 5 gallon ones) where the top one is shorter than bottom. Ideally the handles of the top pot will give you the space for the water to be under your top pot. It's great if the handles on you top top just happend to create space on the bottom but really you could also use almost anything (literal rocks if you want) to make sure there is water under your top pot. The water in the bottom pot and milk in the top: this insures that the milk/top pot wont be heated much more than 100c and just smooths the heating out and requires somewhat less constant attention (or even very little if you want to turn the heat low). The water acts as a buffer between the heat at your burner and the heat delivered to the milk. And..at the end of the day a little milk scalding crust at the bottom on the pan doesn't hurt the cheese but does need a good soak and a rough pad to clean off well. If your making cheese this once I wouldn't buy anything unless you want another pot or a commercial setup, but if you plan on making cheese somewhat regularly having two big good stainless pots that happen to turn into a 2x boiler when stacked is a great, multiuse investment. Also, I tried this with 1% milk and it worked...kindof: the problem is it dries slower and never dries completely, but if you make smaller pieces and bake like Adam suggested it makes wonderful treats your dog will love just not that chewing-on-a-bone kind of hardness. I ate a few myself and while I don't have Duke's powerful jaw it still tasted good. Moral: if you have extra milk (and some kind of acid) you always have cheese.
East India and Nepal have a culture of veneration for dogs. In some regions they celebrate the Kukur Tihar, or Dog Festival, where people are required to treat dogs with respect. So this is very fitting!
You can save that whey and drink it if you wanted! Granted, it might taste a little vinegary, but all the times I've made cheese like this, I used citric acid so it was kind of like "milk-flavored water with a lemony tang". It sounds bizarre, but it was a decent summer drink when chilled and poured over ice. Very nutritious from what I understand.
I have a big ol' dehydrator and I didn't consider I could make these. I do make dehydrated treats with meats and veggies for my dog, though - the pet industry really overprices treats. Thanks for the idea, Adam!
used to pull those creepy cheese bricks out of the back of the mr gattis cheese foamer from around the nozzle and twaddler. was fun watching that tiny bag of cheese grow into a monster pile over 2-3 minutes. never ate any myself. gave my dog tons!
Man, I am jealous that you're in the perfect point down South that you have access to both Publix and Kroger. I grew up in Michigan but I've been down in SC for the last 17 years and miss Kroger.
THANK YOU so much, this is the ONLY toy/chewy/treat that kept my large goldendoodle puppy busy so I could relax! Now I can make them. I will save a ton of moolah! Your doggo is a cutie and it's lucky to have you :)
@9:18 - Thank you for the disclaimer! Our pup has genetically weak teeth and can't handle either these cheeses or rawhide, for similar reasons that they'll just crack his teeth.
interesting point, citric acid powder would work for this and it's probably much cheaper/easier than lemons. bottled lemon juice would be fine for this. My local blue mega store sells 32oz for about 3.00usd
@@aragusea So what I'm getting out of this is: "Use vinegar for this, but lemon juice for other cheeses (unless crumbliness is a goal." Is that correct?
Here in the UK, they're commonly called a 'yak chew'. Really hard or super crunchy if you microwave them for a few minutes. What ever the doggo perfers
I found a couple at Trader Joe's today for my dogs to try and I'm so glad you included that last bit, because the directions about the tips made me wonder if I was supposed to soak it and microwave it before giving them the treat. This way I know to let them chew until it's small! Thank you! 🙂
Huh, this doesn't really seem that much different from making your own mozzarella, except you just dry/squeeze the crap out of it, and then bake it. Theoretically, could you make Mozzarella with the dry milk?
Thanks for the tip. I just have to get enough guts to run my oven for 36 hours, but my dog would love it. Instead of the really expensive store-bought kind we get.
@@misterspeedforce3525I'm not an expert or anything, but from what I've seen, handwritten Tibetan is really different from print Tibetan. I could tell it wasn't rendered correctly in the video because the individual "letters" are meant to stack, and that little swirl after the first letter is the "u" sound, it's supposed to be directly above or below the first letter.
@@misterspeedforce3525basically tibetan script is a segmental abugida which means different components such as vowels (like the 2nd character which is lower down at 1:06) would actually stack together onto a consonant to create syllables. consonants can also be stacked to create consonants clusters (for example, ཀ “ka” and ར “ra” can be stacked to create ཀྲ “kra” or རྐ “rka”. “a” is the inherent vowel in tibetan so the vowel is not written here)

2:44 another reason to use lemon juice is because citric acid is an emulsifying stabilizer (with sodium ofc) making the cheese less crumbly
interesting point, citric acid powder would work for this and it's probably much cheaper/easier than lemons. bottled lemon juice would be fine for this. My local blue mega store sells 32oz for about 3.00usd
But if there’s no fat then there’s nothing to emulsify?
@@aragusea So what I'm getting out of this is: "Use vinegar for this, but lemon juice for other cheeses (unless crumbliness is a goal." Is that correct?
@phazonfish it's probably cheaper and just as effective to use powdered citric acid. Maybe dissolved in a little water so it doesn't clump
It depends on the ratio value... liquid vs powered.
6:39 confirmed that Adam is part of the awesome socks club! That's so fun
poptart is so quiet and pleasant makes me smile and cry
Idk why
Here in the UK, they're commonly called a 'yak chew'. Really hard or super crunchy if you microwave them for a few minutes. What ever the doggo perfers
oh, Chewy Cheese, my favorite '80s comedy actor
I used to make my dog liver jerky instead of using store bought treats, he loved them and its super cheap to make
Adams retirement arch makes me happier and happier every upload haha
I found a couple at Trader Joe's today for my dogs to try and I'm so glad you included that last bit, because the directions about the tips made me wonder if I was supposed to soak it and microwave it before giving them the treat. This way I know to let them chew until it's small! Thank you! 🙂
my goal in life is to be as happy as ragusea is when he talks about cheese
That is one well behaved doggy.
Can't wait to try this Adam! These really really help my dog behave in stressful (for him) situations!
I live in Brazil and have never heard about this thing
Really liked the idea
Gonna give a shot
King Arthur Flour has a number of dog biscuit recipes, and my pup loves them.
4:41 “Yes, you’re a big thinker.”
WHOOOO’s my little ideas man? YOU are! Yes you are!!
My dog absolutely loves these cheeses! Thanks for sharing a recipe!
Thank you PopTart & Adam ♥
Nothing will turn internet talking heads on you faster than recommending food for dogs, but this looks really great
Huh, this doesn't really seem that much different from making your own mozzarella, except you just dry/squeeze the crap out of it, and then bake it. Theoretically, could you make Mozzarella with the dry milk?
the answer is yes. ruclips.net/video/Ty3W1aGbAO8/видео.html
I really want to see this cheese on a pizza... Might be too much acid?
If you quit halfway you have ricotta
@@mdsssssssssI think that's cottage cheese... Isn't ricotta made from whey?
I think Mozarella has too much fat, especially the traditional Buffalo variety, but other than that, same method.
Fantastic video! Thoroughly describes it and its application.
I love cheese too, Poptart
Love the Ghostbusters reference at the end. 👻❤️
Been using these for years. Can’t recommend enough. Lasts for so long and they can really grind on them.
mmmm I love dog cheese, and thanks for the recipe! My kids will sure love this!
I swear he could throw a video like this is what my cat should have eaten and I still watch it, you go Adam!
What a pair of awesome socks ❤
We just got a St. Bernard puppy a month ago. I can't wait for her to be old enough to have some of these!
Totally making these for my dogs. They go through no hides so fast it is breaking the bank.
Adam: Lemons are expensive!
Also Adam: Use dried milk instead
Thanks for the tip. I just have to get enough guts to run my oven for 36 hours, but my dog would love it. Instead of the really expensive store-bought kind we get.
1:03 rip to the tibetan script you looked so cool before computers came along and failed to render you
Is it meant to look like something else? I'd love to know where I should look to see something more accurate to handwritten script
@@misterspeedforce3525I'm not an expert or anything, but from what I've seen, handwritten Tibetan is really different from print Tibetan. I could tell it wasn't rendered correctly in the video because the individual "letters" are meant to stack, and that little swirl after the first letter is the "u" sound, it's supposed to be directly above or below the first letter.
@@misterspeedforce3525basically tibetan script is a segmental abugida which means different components such as vowels (like the 2nd character which is lower down at 1:06) would actually stack together onto a consonant to create syllables. consonants can also be stacked to create consonants clusters (for example, ཀ “ka” and ར “ra” can be stacked to create ཀྲ “kra” or རྐ “rka”. “a” is the inherent vowel in tibetan so the vowel is not written here)
8:01 no salt but either sugar or a lot of dextrose. Because it's needed for any kind of dried milk
Best dog ever!! YES YOU ARE!!
