  2. When the milk begins to simmer bring it down to a medium controlled heat and add the vinegar a table spoon at a time stirring with a wooden spoon for about a minute before adding another spoon,at this point you will see the milk beginning to curdle,add the rest of the vinegar and stir, you will see the curd separating from the whey.Put off the heat and let it sit for a few minutes to separate completely.

  3. Put a seive over a bowl and put a cheese or muslin cloth in the seive then pour out the curd inside.Pour the strained water(whey) into another bowl and pour some water over the curd to remove the sour taste of the vinegar,allow to sit for some minutes to allow the water to strain out or you can squeeze out the water gently.
