Thank you! Been watching "cottage cheese" videos for hours and they all make 'farmer's cheese'. Your's actually looks like cottage cheese... THANK YOU!
I soooooooooo appreciate this information. Far too many people tell you that you have to use an acid such as vinegar or lemon juice and rennet. Go figure, I can "cut the curd" without rennet! This is wayyyyyyyyyyyy more practical!!!! I set my raw milk out as you said and sure enough it became firm and gelatinous. Now I'm heating it on low flame after cutting the curds and need to remember the next step!
Wow Janette that looks Awesome! maybe someday down the road I am going to have to give that a try. Thank you for showing how to make the cottage cheese.
@@TheNealsHomestead Janette..you amaze me with your storehouse of knowledge. Keep up the good work. I would sure like to make it down for a visit. Maybe sometime during spring break. The week of the 16th through the 20th of March.
Nice Video 👍 Never seen how to Make Cottage cheese very interesting came out great .. I don’t Lime cottage cheese but all that so enjoy 👍✌️☮️❤️ I’m sharing your video
I did your method, but in the instapot... I used the yogurt setting on" low" for 24 hours after I skimmed off all the cream from the raw milk. Then I used the yogurt function again at the "normal" setting and strained the Curds and got the same end product with less guesswork. I will never buy store-bought ever again! Thank you for your video!
Thank you for this video! I remember making cottage cheese with my mom, she helped me over the phone a couple years ago again but it flopped. I hadn’t attempted trying it again until now, but my mom is no longer here. But this sounds just like we made it when I was 17. ❤️
Actually, on cottage cheese, i like store bought better. I was trying to replicate, and came close, but not exact. But knowing that it's pure food and no additives is a great plus. Thank you, Cheryl.
You might have to keep it in the basement. Lol Somehow, I think John wouldn't go for that. It's kind of fun messing around with the milk. Thanks, Anita
Thank you for this video. I’ve been looking for something like this for a while. I think you said you used a gallon is that right? You didn’t end up telling everybody how many cups of cottage cheese was produced in the end even though I know it’s healthier. I still want to know how much is going to cost me and how much I get.and then I’m assuming you saved the buttermilk? For other things? How much buttermilk did you get. And my last question is did you say you strained all the creamy fat off the top of the raw milk before you did this?
Awesome! I'm home with Mom at the moment and she LOVES cottage cheese. I thought I'd see how you could make it at home, and this was a great demonstration! Its impressive how you use all of the components of the raw milk to make different things. Will this technique work with pasteurized milk, or only with raw milk? What do you like to do with the whey? :)
If you use pasteurized milk, you MUST use a starter culture because pasteurized milk does NOT have any GOOD bacteria in it. Pasteurized milk left out for 3 day would turn rancid!
I have so much milk as my hubby delivers milk and expiring milk, he just throw it away. What a waste. I need to do something! Thank you for this video, you gave me idea.
Did you add anything to the milk before you let it sit for several days? I have a pot of 2 gallons of milk that has sat for 2 days but it is only slightly curdled on the top layer. And it looks bubbly/bumpy not smooth and flat like yours? I'm not sure if I missed something?
My milk has done the same thing... I set it out Sunday and it's now Wednesday. My house is colder so I set it by the wood burner today to encourage more clabbering. Im hoping it works. I want to make cottage cheese so bad! Lol
Thank you for this video very helpful. I have some heavy cream that I forgot out for almost 2 days and when I opened it it did not smell bad and it separated and curdled is there anything that i can still do with it? Wasnt sure if you'd be able to answer this question because it's not whole milke like yours was mine is just the cream.
I have a Jersey and I milk her everyday. Her calf is 3 weeks old. I have tried to set the milk out to do this. I have left it out for as long as 4 days and it does not curdle at all. I've tried it 2 times. Is it better to let the milk age in the fridge for a few days then let it out on the counter?
I don't have a good answer for you, but i wish i did. The only thing i can think of could be her stage off lactation or her feed, but that is based on nothing, only a guess. I hope you cab figure it out.
@@TheNealsHomestead thank you, my son in law is stumped on this as well. He grew up with cows and always having raw milk. He's noticed the same thing with the milk I give him. He's going to ask his mom. Have a good day.
This is the day...I'm getting the curdle after leaving for two day...unfortunately I'm not getting anything to cut into 😞..looks like the chickens will get it
I was about to ask the same…I have raw milk in fridge now for about 7 days…I just took it out and will do this…Thank You…recently I’m have a cottage cheese craving…💖
Because when cows are milked there might be a cow hair fall into the milk or alfalfa from her dinner might blow in. Straining just ensures you have nothing but milk in the final product.
Sorry to ask a question that seems to be already asked, but I don't see a direct answer. When you lay it set and clabber for 3 days, is that outside of the refrigerator? Thanks!
Mimi Mimi oh yeah do you love me Do You Know Me if you don't okay okay so just tell me if you don't know me and you like me text me okay okay I know what to do my best friend spidey's I hate your last video Justin Bieber came in the video in the story the whole thing OMG I just saw that I really saw that what okay let's use on Jesus like now Jesus house never going to happen again and I'm okay fire the spending

Incredibly helpful video, my first time making cottage cheese was a success thanks to you!
Thank you very much for this! I raise dairy goats & have been looking for cottage cheese recipes. I'll be trying this! God bless!
I just did it today following your recipe, turned out amazing. Thanks for sharing your knowledge! ❤
My grandmother used to make the cottage cheese like this and now I am making it the same way. The vest!

Hopefully you can get in a place where you can access fresh milk and do things with it. Thanks for watching!

I'm surprised your grandma didn't make it. Did they have a cow? If not, that would make a difference. Thanks, Brenda!
The Neals' Homestead no cows they did rabbits and pigs ✌️☮️❤️
I've tried other ways over the years, to make cottage cheese, not exactly what I like. I'll try this. Thanks for posting.
Did you like it?
I am a little late watching but I needed to learn this.. blessings
Great recipe. TFS

I'm really glad you're enjoying the videos. I appreciate that you're coming over and watching.
Thank you for this tutorial!
Thank you!
Awesome video! I’ve been looking for a good cottage cheese video!

Sorry for your loss even if it’s been a while😢❤❤ your mom sounds like she was awesome!!😊
Love your video!
Hi Jeannette, new subbie here. Thanks for this video. I look forward to your video content. ❣katie
This is awesome. I bet the taste is so much better then what we get in the stores, don’t have all those chemicals they use. Yum. 😁 Cheryl

I love the video thanks for sharing absolutely love all the details! What do you do with all the excess whay that you've taken out of it?
that looks delish.... have you made a video on how to make regular cheese?
Thank you for this ❤️
Wish I could try some of yours
I wish you could, too! Thanks for watching, though!
I think I need a cow 🐄. I'm sure the neighbors won't mind 🤣
You might have to keep it in the basement. Lol Somehow, I think John wouldn't go for that. It's kind of fun messing around with the milk. Thanks, Anita
I enjoyed watching the milk series. I cut wait to taste fresh homemade cheese, butter, milk from our cow! Can I suggest better salt for you?
Saltverk from Iceland is all natural and superb!
And best of all NO MIGRAINES like the store bought chemical filled salt!

I think ut will work with pasteurized milk, but you probably should add a starter, such as yogurt to help it along.

I have so much milk as my hubby delivers milk and expiring milk, he just throw it away. What a waste. I need to do something! Thank you for this video, you gave me idea.
Just wonder if you heat a heave enameled pot or crock if it would clabber faster
My cottage cheese was great!
A little cherry and pineapple preserve and better than store bought.
You're explanations are excellent.
Hi, thanks for the video! Why my milk turns bitter and sour? Thanks
Did you add anything to the milk before you let it sit for several days? I have a pot of 2 gallons of milk that has sat for 2 days but it is only slightly curdled on the top layer. And it looks bubbly/bumpy not smooth and flat like yours? I'm not sure if I missed something?

I want to use the cottage cheese for baking , so can I just skip the heating step?
We are from South africa do we add anything to make it curdle before 3/4 days?
It should do it naturally, but you can add rennet if you want it to curdle faster.
Thank you for this video very helpful. I have some heavy cream that I forgot out for almost 2 days and when I opened it it did not smell bad and it separated and curdled is there anything that i can still do with it? Wasnt sure if you'd be able to answer this question because it's not whole milke like yours was mine is just the cream.
Use it as sour cream or make butter.
@@TheNealsHomestead would you just stir it for sour cream or strain it
Do is this day 3 or 4 that you began the process?
I think it was 3 days
@@TheNealsHomestead do you add rennet?
Lovely lady.
thanks
If you like store bought taste better do u think this because of souring.
May you please re phrase yourself

Pls let us know when you find out
I’d probably add sugar &/or honey also.
Check your thermometers by putting them in boiling water and see what temp they show. If it shows 212 degrees, it is correct.
Good one!
Can you do this with raw goats milk?
I think you should be able to.
This is the day...I'm getting the curdle after leaving for two day...unfortunately I'm not getting anything to cut into 😞..looks like the chickens will get it
I have raw milk that was put in the fridge....can I still put it in the pot and let it sit out for a couple days to let it curdle?
I wouod say yes.
The Neals' Homestead Thank you!!
I was about to ask the same…I have raw milk in fridge now for about 7 days…I just took it out and will do this…Thank You…recently I’m have a cottage cheese craving…💖
Could I heat it slowly in a dehydrator?
Yes, it would be perfect
Calibrate thermometer in boiling water.
Can I use my milk that has started to sour ?
Yes, it's fine. Go for it!
Can anyone tell me the reason for straining the milk as her very first step?
straining raw milk allows you to assess the milk for any signs of mastitis and inspect for foreign material.
Because when cows are milked there might be a cow hair fall into the milk or alfalfa from her dinner might blow in. Straining just ensures you have nothing but milk in the final product.
I tried this and it smelled and tested sour. Not sure what I did wrong
Sorry to ask a question that seems to be already asked, but I don't see a direct answer.
When you lay it set and clabber for 3 days, is that outside of the refrigerator?
Thanks!
yes, she said in the vid
does this kill the nutrients of the milk?
I don't think so.

But wait! It may not look like yours, but as I went ahead with the procedure...it is looking like cottage cheese !
