Hi Carolyn,

No, buttermilk will not give you good cheese - this only works with milk. Yes, boiling (at least heating ) is neccessary for the process to go through. Otherwise the cheese will not be formed. You can try adding the lemon as the milk is heated and watching to see when it becomes cheese but my experience is that the clear liquid left behind will not be clear enough unless it has been boiled to extract the full contents of cottage cheese out of it.

Subject: Re: Recipe for organic cottage cheese

OK, I am now to the point of thinking about making my own cottage
cheese
or quark. I am tired of the high salt content of store-bought cottage
cheese. I have a few questions: Is boiling the milk necessary? Does it
lose nutrients when it is boiled? If we use organic buttermilk and
follow the recipe in the archives, is the buttermilk still good to use
if it has been pasteurized?

Thanks,
Carolyn

Carolyn,
if the whey is from organic dairy, I drink it - if not I discard it. Whey has good nutrients in it. A lot of the minerals are in the whey.

Question: What do I do with the whey? Put it down the drain or use it?

Thanks,
Carolyn

Thanks for your response. Actually, I already made recipe 1 from the Files section using organic cultured buttermilk I THINK I MADE QUARK. It turned out really well. I hope other batches turn out as well. It also tastes great, much better than the cottage cheese that I have been buying. But since it is so thick, I have been mixing it my left-over cottage cheese.

I have recently made quarck using buttermilk according to the recipe in the files which is the recipe Wilhelm said he uses. The buttermilk is heated to 150 F or 65.5 C - not boiled.

I'd like confirmation that buttermilk is a suitable ingredient to make quarck.
