Delicious homemade cottage cheese made from milk and sour cream

A wonderful recipe for a healthy product just needs to be included in the menu. I grew up in the village and got used to real delicious homemade cottage cheese. Now I live in the city and I don't like the cottage cheese that is sold in stores at all, yet the store cottage cheese is sour and doesn't look much like real homemade cottage cheese from my childhood. That's why I got my grandmother's cooking recipe and use it to make delicious homemade cottage cheese. If you have never tried it in your life, then take a little time and make it for yourself – just to understand how different it is from the store. Cottage cheese is a very tasty food, it can be eaten with sour cream, with sugar, spread on bread, add to pasta – provided that the cottage cheese is really delicious, you will not be able to pull yourself away from the plate.

First of all boil the milk, then quickly cool it to about 40 degrees. Pour sour cream into the milk (or whatever you have chosen for sourdough), mix and until the milk reaches the state of curdled milk, leave it to sour. 
Slowly heat this milk until the whey starts to stand out. Put the gauze in a colander, discard the cottage cheese, then tie the gauze and hang it. This is necessary in order for all the liquid to come off. After 5-6 hours, delicious homemade cottage cheese will be ready.
