Home Paneer Instructions

  1. Bring 1500 ml of milk to a boil in a saucepan over high heat. Add 45 ml of lemon juice or vinegar, reduce heat to medium-low, and simmer until the milk curdles.
  2. Transfer the curds to a colander lined with cheesecloth. Rinse with cold water until the whey is fully drained.
  3. Gather the cheesecloth and tie it tightly into a bundle.
  4. Place the bundled curds on a cutting board, cover with a flat plate, and set a 3 kg weight on top. Press for 30 minutes.
  5. Remove the cheesecloth. Store the paneer in the refrigerator for up to 7 days.

Bon Appetit!
