Homade cheese spread. So delicious. Only 3 ingredients. Come check it out!馃珷馃憞馃憣
Hey hey everyone. It's me, Tigermom from South Africa 馃嚳馃嚘. It's been a while since I last posted something. It's just been a busy time these past few months. But I'll start to share more and more now. About 2 months ago, my toddler went to school, and then my mom came from Johannesburg to visit us for 3 weeks; she went back today. But let me show you guys what I made with only 3 ingredients: cheese, milk, and margarine. Cheesespread 馃槃馃槃 At the shop, cheese spread is so expensive. I think it's much cheaper to make homemade cheese spread; it works out cheaper and more spread and very delicious though.
The amount of cheese I used was
800 grams; that's the whole block. I used the brand BERG cheese. This cheese melts better and is very tasty. Then I added 500 grams of margarine and 400grams of milk.
To start to make the cheese spread I added the butter/margarine to a big bowl. I put the stove on number 4, and then I added the milk.
If you make the spread, make sure you do it on a low temperature; otherwise, the milk will start burning. While I was waiting for the butter to melt, I took the cheese and broke it into pieces. But next time I will grate it. It's your choice, though.
When the butter was melted and the milk was very hot, just before boiling, I added the cheese into the milk, and then the stirring started haha. Make sure you have time, and the kids are not all over, haha. 馃お
You will see that the cheese starts to melt and the milk will get thicker and smoother.
When the cheese has melted nicely and is very thick, it's done.
I poured the cheese spread into a glass jug and poured it into a glass bottle that can seal properly.
With the amount of cheese I made, I got out two glass bottles of spread.
You can add fine biltong powder or anything of your choice. I made the one bottle just plain. And the other one I added a teaspoon of homemade chilli sauce. 馃構
When it's in the bottles, you can leave it aside with the lids on, let it cool down, and then put it in the fridge. It can last about 2 weeks if it's not eaten up before that time, haha. You must stir the milk all the time.
There you go. Homemade cheese spread. I hope that everyone will have a try to do this lovely recipe. Have a blessed Monday. God bless you all.
