11. Drain

To drain, transfer contents into Mesh Strainer

Time: 01:00:00

Tip: Since we didnt use the drainer you can use a ladel to transfer your separated curd to the mesh or pour the contents directly from the Fromaggio into the bowl via the mesh. You can stack your mesh on top of the drainer in a bowl to help elevate it.

at this point you will only be using the Fromaggio to heat the water the remainder of process will be done outside the machine

12. +Ingredients

Please add: 2 tsp of Kosher or Non Iodized salt

Tip: salt to taste stiring the curd by hand.

13. Instructions

Transfer your rested curd to a large bowl and break along its natural lines. stir by hand to loosen. pour whey from your fromagio into another bowl or container for reuse later. add 3 liters of filtered or nonchlorinated water.

14. Heat

Time: 01:00:00

Temperature: 82 °C

Speed: OFF

15. Instructions

Add heated water to your bowl with the curd pouring along the edge of the the bowl with a label. DO NOT pour directly on curd.

the curd will begin to melt slowly add more water as you go and the curd will become more stretchable. do not add hot water too fast or the curd will shed its fat into the water and it will turn yellow.
