Instructions

To prepare whey, take around one and a half cups of milk to yield around four cups of whey. In a pan pour the milk and bring it to a boil. Stir occasionally to prevent milk from sticking at the bottom of the pan. Meanwhile, take a strainer and place it above a bowl. Cover the strainer with a thin napkin or muslin cloth. Once the milk starts boiling, switch off the heat and after a minute, add lemon or vinegar to start the curdling process. Don’t forget to stir the mixture after adding lemon juice. Now, with the use of a strainer, separate the curdled and the water portion. The watery portion is the whey and the solid portion can be used to make paneer.
