This recipe was extracted from Virginia Cookery-book (1884) by Mary Stuart Smith, page 137. The excerpt below is the record exactly as published.

Take five quarts of new milk fresh from the cow, and add to it a quart of cream and a pint of warm water ; then stir it all together, and put into it enough prepared rennet to turn that quantity of milk (one dessert-spoonful to a quart)

Cook this with the app: pantry check, scaling, and the assistant.
