Ok nix my last statement, I got ahead of myself. Mozz actually creates whey. Sorry, just overly excited about the possibilities!

Jessica, I almost forgot. You can make mozzarella from the left over whey!

Jessica, the whey can be used in makeing homemade soaps, lotions, etc. You can use it in your bath water to soften skin. Add sugar to it to make a facial or body scrup. There are endless uses.

Is there something you can do with the remaining milk/buttermilk? It seems a waste to throw it away.

hey guys! Low Pasteurized milk is something that I bought from my local farmers market. It does not mean low fat rather it means that it hasn’t been boiled and therefore its not really sold in grocery stores. If you can’t find low or unpasteurized milk you can use regular whole milk from your local grocery store!

happy cheese making~

I’ve done this method before and it makes wonderfully, creamy Ricotta cheese. You won’t believe the difference from the store-bought variety!
