Method
- Stirring regularly, put half and half on high heat, and gently stir until it gets to its rolling boil (make sure to watch the video above on this one, it helps you visualize what it should look like)
- Now add half of the vinegar and gently stir. After about 30 seconds, add the second half and continue stirring gently. Don’t disrupt the curdling process, you don’t want to mix in the lumps.
- Once your half and half has stopped curdling (2-3 minutes) strain it with cheesecloth or a fine metal strainer and let it rest for 15 minutes to partially cool.
- Blend the curds for about 2 to 3 minutes until it gets rich and creamy, time may vary depending on your blender, but ensure it's completely smooth.
- Refrigerate and use as needed just like cream cheese!
