16 Delicious Homemade Dairy Products
Making homemade dairy products is not only cheaper in many cases, but it also tastes better too! There a few supplies that are a good idea to keep on hand for these dairy recipes.
- Stand Mixer – It’s great for whipping and stirring ingredients together. A stand mixer helps give the products a creamy texture.
- Cheesecloth – If you plan to make ricotta or other cheese recipes, cheesecloth is a must-have. It’s very inexpensive, so you can buy a lot and keep it on hand for your homemade dairy products.
- Glass Jars – To store the cheese, butter, and other recipes, it’s helpful to have various sizes of glass jars.
- Thermometer – It’s a great idea to use a reliable dairy/milk thermometer when making cheese or other dairy products. You will have much better luck than if you just guess the temperature.
- Measuring Cups – This may seem like a no-brainer, but it’s vital to have a variety of measuring cups and measuring spoons because you are going to need them.
- Colander – Depending on what you are making, a colander may be very useful. It’s important to use metal, enamel, or plastic. Stay away from anything that is aluminum, or it could react and mess up the recipe.
