Guest guest Posted April 19, 2010 Report Share Posted April 19, 2010 Well, I'm not positive, but I think DCCC is a subset of Farmer's Cheese (or maybe the same thing). Here is the Wikipedia page on Farmer's Cheese (there isn't one for DCCC). http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Farmer_cheese Sounds like a bacterial starter is used to acidify the milk and then the whey is drained off. I'm just guessing, but maybe this is what makes it safe for us to eat? Thanks! So how is DCCC made? Stacey > > I asked this also, Marilyn responded: > > " Nope.

Guest guest Posted April 20, 2010 Report Share Posted April 20, 2010 Raj,The closet I have come is to take SCD yogurt (best with whole milk vs. skimmed or 2 %) and heat it on very low heat in a pan on the stove for about an hour. This will slowly curdle the yogurt without cooking it too much. The bacteria will be dead, though. Cool, strain, and drip/press as you normally would paneer (after curdling the milk with vinegar/lemon juice).AmeliaTo: BTVC-SCD Sent: Tue, April 20, 2010 3:05:04 AMSubject: Re: Paneer cheese?
