CHEESE As in the case of eggs and meat, the cooking of cheese is important from the standpoint of temperature. The cooking should be carried only to the point of melting the cheese; beyond that, the proteins become tough and indigestible. All cheese dishes should be cooked at low temperature. Cheese should be combined with foods already cooked, or those requiring very short cooking. It should be kept in a cool, dry place, covered with oiled paper. COTTAGE CHEESE. 1. Heat thick, sour milk or buttermilk slowly over hot water (not boiling) to 110°F. 2. When curds and whey have separated and whey is clear, drain in a cheesecloth; hang to drip. 3. When fairly dry, put curd into bowl, add salt and cream or salad dressing. 4. Mix to a paste ; mould into a cake or balls. Additions. — Finely chopped parsley, chopped walnuts, pimento, green pepper.
