Method

1

Pour the milk into a saucepan, add salt, and bring to a boil.

2

Once boiling, reduce the heat, pour in the kefir, and stir — curd flakes will form within 30–40 seconds.

3

Pour the mixture into cheesecloth and let the whey drain for 10–15 minutes.

4

Meanwhile, use a mixer to beat the egg with lemon juice until smooth and light in color (consistency like runny sour cream).

5

Combine the curd and the egg mixture, and beat thoroughly.

6

Next, heat through using a double boiler.

7

The finished cheese can be served immediately with herbs, spices, and cucumber, or chilled in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
