Ingredients

  • 2 packs of cream (total 400 grams)
  • 1.5 tablespoons of lemon juice

Instructions

  1. 1

    Mascarpone cheese is a bit more expensive in our country. That's why we wanted to make it less costly by trying it at home. We achieved a 90% similar taste. It is a delicious mascarpone cheese that we can put in tiramisu and use in other cheese desserts. That being the case, we couldn't help but share it with you.

  2. 2

    Put water into a pot. Let it heat up and boil slightly.

  3. 3

    Place a glass bowl on top. Make sure that the glass bowl does not touch the bottom of the pot.

  4. 4

    Turn your stove to low heat. Pour the cream into the glass bowl and mix.

  5. 5

    Heat the cream without boiling, stirring until light bubbles appear around the edges.

  6. 6

    When you see bubbles, add lemon juice, stir 2-3 more times and remove from heat.

  7. 7

    After removing it from the stove, continue mixing on the counter for 1-2 more minutes.

  8. 8

    When it reaches the consistency of boza, place a towel on it, close the lid of the pot and let it rest for about 4 hours.

  9. 9

    After this resting process, remove the towel and leave it for 12 hours (up to overnight), if possible.

  10. 10

    Place your thoroughly thickened cheese in a cheesecloth and let it sit for a while for the water to drain thoroughly.
