Mascarpone Cheese
Mascarpone cheese is an essential ingredient for tiramisu..I have never ever seen this product in our area..So I searched for the recipe in internet and found that it is very simple to make at home..I made this with homemade heavy cream..I have already posted the heavy cream recipe..I made tiramisu with this homemade mascarpone cheese.
Ingredients
- heavy cream - 1 cup
- lemon juice - 1/2 tbs
Method
- pour the cream into a heavy bottomed saucepan
- heat up the cream on low medium flame until bubbles begin to come
- add in the lemon juice and stir well
- continue stirring on low flame for 1 minute
- now turn off the flame
- place a strainer over a bowl
- line the strainer with cheese cloth
- pour the cream into the strainer
- allow it to cool
- when it is cool place the strainer and bowl in the refrigerator for minimum 12 hours
- after 12 hours what you see in the strainer is mascarpone cheese, leaving 2-3 tbs whey in the bowl
