The Amish Cook: Homemade Velveeta Cheese
- VELVEETA CHEESE
- 1 gallon of milk
- 2 tablespoons citric acid
- 3 /4 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 /4 cup butter
- 1 1 /4 teaspoons salt
- 2 1 /2 tablespoons cheddar cheese powder
- 1 /3 cup whole milk
- Heat a gallon of milk to 140 degrees.
- Remove from heat and add 2 tablespoons citric acid.
- Stir, allowing curds to separate from whey.
- Drain whey and let set for 10 minutes.
- Add soda, butter, salt, cheddar cheese powder, and milk to the curds.
- Heat and stir briskly until the lumps are dissolved.
- Put into a container and refrigerate.
- I like lining my container with plastic wrap then lifting it out after it is set.
- It makes it easier to slice.
