Directions
Paneer ( Indian Cottage Cheese),Posted for ZWT6. I got this from worldcook.htm. If you wait longer and put a weight on top, it will be firm white cheese.,As written, the recipe produces an unsalted soft cheese that reminds me of yogurt. I did not weight my curds while they drained, but I allowed them to drain twice as long. used several layers of cheesecloth, which turned out to be a mistake as I had strata of cheese between the layers. My second photo shows my panir after I cubed it (and shows how much remained trapped in the cheesecloth). By the time I cooked it for Recipe #482753, it had the consistency of cottage cheese — not appealing in looks, but it did the trick for the recipe. Next time, I would put the finished cheese in a square glass container and weight it down to make a consistent rectangle of cheese easy to cube. At any rate, I ended up with a little over 1 cup of panir from 1 liter of milk. This is a recipe you need to play with to find the perfect consistency for your needs. Made for The Wild Bunch for ZWT8 for its trip to India.
