At this time of year when calves
and pigs can find substitutes for the
milk perhaps some of US
will be trying to make cottage cheese.
AS the milk sours quicker in a deep
mass / set mine in sap bucket on
the back of the range for "a hours,
when find it thickened. Then | take
a long bladed knife and cut in down
through two ways so that the top rep
resents one and one-half inch squares.
AS the whey separates from the curd
dip it off carefully every few minutes
until three fourths the original mass
is dipped off. Now set it where it
will scald but not boil, for a short
time, stirring the curd occasionally
and turning off balance of the whey,
then turn curd into a colander and set
in cool place for twelve hours. /
use granite wear rather than tin at
this period. Mix the curd with a
spoon or hands till the granules are
ike graduated meal and salt about
)ne and one-fourth ounces TO a pound,
mixing at the same time just enough
sweet cream TO mould it into balls.
These balls | make just large enough
o be enclosed in one-half of a pound
,utter paper. When these brought

ZACH and butter was zoe per pound the
heese brought in the more money.
