Ingredients:
- 1 liter of fresh milk
- 1 lemon
- Extra virgin olive oil
Preparation and Steps:
Preparing the Milk: Pour the fresh milk into a pot and heat it over medium heat. Once the milk is warm, continue heating it until it reaches the boiling point. When the milk starts to boil, reduce the heat.
Adding Lemon Juice: Squeeze the lemon and add its juice to the boiling milk. The lemon juice will cause the milk to curdle and coagulate. At this stage, you will see the milk separating into whey and curds.
Straining Process: Strain the curdled milk using a strainer or cheesecloth. Set aside the obtained curds (labneh). Do not discard the whey, as it can be used in soups or baking.
Mixing with Extra Virgin Olive Oil: Place the curds in a blender or food processor. Gradually add Olizzi Baby Extra Virgin Olive Oil and blend until smooth. The extra virgin olive oil enhances the flavor of the cheese and provides essential healthy fats for your baby.
Final Touches: Transfer the prepared labneh cheese to a bowl and drizzle extra Olizzi Baby Extra Virgin Olive Oil on top. This final touch will make the labneh cheese more aromatic and delicious.
