Do

  1. Place milk, cream and salt into TM bowl and cook 13 min/100ºC/speed 2.

  2. Cook 13 min/50ºC/speed 2.

  3. Add 20g lemon juice and stir 3 sec/speed 2.

  4. Repeat step 3 twice more with remaining lemon juice.

  5. Allow mixture to stand in TM bowl approximately 30 minutes.

  6. Line a sieve with a quadruple layer of cheesecloth.

  7. Pour mixture out, reserving whey for other uses.

  8. Wrap cheese tightly in a ball and squeeze out excess whey. Don't go too hard, you don't want to break up the curds.

  9. Press into a rectangle with a piece of baking paper on top and put a weight on top of it to squeeze out further liquid.

  10. Allow to age 'gracefully' in the fridge up to 24 hours. Cut into squares for use in recipes as directed.
