Ingredients

10 egg (s)
1 liter milk
salt
sugar

Instructions

Mix eggs and milk together well. Add a little salt and sugar. If possible, place in an earthenware pot and heat in a water bath until the mixture coagulates and solidifies.
(You can also do this in the microwave - take a look in between meals and carefully stir in the mixture a little so that it cooks evenly and not from the outside in.)
Put the mixture in a sieve and drain. In the Siegerland, a ring cake-like perforated stoneware form is used for this. It may take an hour or more to drain. Turn the egg cheese obtained in this way inside out and let it cool.
The egg cheese is cut into thick slices and eaten on fresh white bread. Here in Siegerland, people prefer to simply sprinkle the slices with sugar and cinnamon.

About Editorial Staff

The Boss Kitchen editorial staff oversees content review, fact-checking, and recipe verification across the site. Published articles pass through the editorial team before going live, ensuring ingredient lists, techniques, cooking times, and nutritional claims hold up in a home kitchen. The team coordinates contributions across the site writers, handles reader corrections, and maintains consistency in measurement conventions, safety guidance, and dietary labeling. Posts under this byline typically represent team-reviewed reference material, site announcements, or editorial roundups rather than individual-author features, and they are held to the same sourcing standards as bylined recipe and product coverage.
