Ohh I would love BOTH of your recipes. I am going to try to start making my own cheeses and yogurts. I have a friend that owns some dairy cows and is willing to GIVE me all the fresh raw milk that I want!!!

I do make yogurt sometimes too. It is easy to make and way worth it. Have fun!

Alton Brown's Cottage Cheese
1 gallon pasteurized skim milk 3/4 cup white vinegar 1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt 1/2 cup half-and half-or heavy cream
Pour the skim milk into a large saucepan and place over medium heat. Heat to 120 degrees F. Remove from the heat and gently pour in the vinegar. Stir slowly for 1 to 2 minutes. The curd will separate from the whey. Cover and allow to sit at room temperature for 30 minutes. Pour the mixture into a colander lined with a tea towel and allow to sit and drain for 5 minutes. Gather up the edges of the cloth and rinse under cold water for 3 to 5 minutes or until the curd is completely cooled, squeezing and moving the mixture the whole time. Once cooled, squeeze as dry as possible and transfer to a mixing bowl. Add the salt and stir to combine, breaking up the curd into bite-size pieces as you go. If ready to serve immediately, stir in the half-and-half or heavy cream. If not, transfer to a sealable container and place in the refrigerator. Add the half and half or heavy cream just prior to serving.

I just want to go on record as saying I am insanely jealous of all you ladies who have access to Raw Milk. I want to try it! LOL

No I have not tried it with anything but skim milk, but I dont see why it wouldnt work. As for raw milk, since he is a celebrity, I guess he can promote things like raw milk, uncooked eggs and such because of liability issues... they made a joke about eating cookie dough.
Add less salt... but it is really good.

Elizabeth,
Does it matter what kind of pan you use - stainless, aluminum etc? How much cottage cheese does a gallon of milk make? It's just DD and myself so I wouldn't want it to go bad? Can the recipe be cut in half?
