Steps:
- In a large heavy-bottomed saucepot over medium heat with a kitchen thermometer attached to the rim, warm the milk and buttermilk to 85°F. Add one-quarter of the rennet tablet and transfer the mixture to a plastic container or bowl. Cover with plastic wrap and then poke a few holes in the plastic to allow the steam to escape. Let stand at room temperature in a cool spot in your house for 48 hours.
- Use a slotted spoon to transfer the solids to a double layer of cheesecloth set over a bowl and discard the liquid. Wrap the solids in the cheesecloth and hang it over the bowl (to catch the whey) in the refrigerator for 24 hours.
- Discard the whey. Pack the cheese into an airtight plastic container and store in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.
CREOLE CREAM CHEESE, NEW ORLEANS ORIGINAL
Creole Cream Cheese is a farmer style cheese similar in fashion to a combination of cottage cheese and sour cream. Although originally a product of France, many New Orleans dairies such as Goldseal and Borden's supplied the city with the product for many years. Today, Creole cream cheese may be purchased from Dorignac's on...

Steps:
- 1. Combine skim milk, buttermilk, and the ½ rennet tablet in a stainless steel pot. Using a thermometer, bring the temperature of the milk to 80 degrees, stirring constantly and hold for five minutes.
- 2. Remove from heat, cover tightly and allow to sit 12 hours. Drain off the liquid, (which is whey remaining after the curds are formed), discarding this liquid or keep it to make homemade Ricotta. Put curds into very small stainless colanders or containers with drain holes. Let remaining whey drip off of the curds for 3 hours.
- 3. In 16-ounce containers pack the containers half full with the cheese solids, then top with 8-ounces of half and half cream, if desired, or just put into 8-ounce containers. Chill and serve with sugar or fruit. Creole cream cheese is excellent in ice creams and pastries.
- 4. *This recipe can be used to make Creole Cream Cheese Ice Cream. *Note: For savory cream cheese, omit the half & half and add a sprinkle of granulated garlic, granulated onion, dried or fresh chives, or any other herb that you like. Mix well and serve on celery stalks, bagels, toast, etc.
CREOLE CREAM CHEESE
The original indigenous cheese of New Orleans that has just about been abandoned by all of the large commercial enterprises that had gobbled up our local dairies during the latter part of the twentieth century. New Orleanians sprinkle the end product liberaly with sugar and half-and-half, topped fresh fruit or better yet, make Creole Cream Cheese Ice Cream. Note: If you've never experienced Creole Cream Cheese, the closest consistency probably would be that of Greek yogurt and could be eaten as such. This is one for the New Orleans natives.

Steps:
- Pour milk into a completely sanitized, 3 to 4 quart container, preferably stainless steel. Cover milk and place it in the warmest spot in your kitchen or on top of a warmed clothes dryer, until it reaches a temperature level between 70 - 80 degrees F. The milk may be heated slowly on the stove on very low heat, but do not allow its temperature exceed 80 degrees F.
- When milk reaches the correct temperature, pour the buttermilk into a small bowl and add the liquid rennet, or if you are using dry rennet, dissolve the 1/4 tablet in the buttermilk. Pour buttermilk into warmed milk with skim milk. Stir mixture well and set it aside, covered with cheesecloth, to allow the liquid to form solid, but very soft, curds. Good drainage is necessary. The container should not be placed near heat or directly exposed to an airflow. The cheese should form curds in 24 to 36 hours. Avoid stirring or the curds will break.
- When the curds are formed, line a large strainer or colander with cheesecloth and carefully pour the curds into the cloth. Place the strainer or colander over a bowl to hold the watery whey as it drains from the curds. When the curds no longer drip water, the cream cheese is ready to be chilled in the refrigerator. Keeps refrigerated for about 2 weeks.
