Step to Step Guide to Prepare Lactose-free Feta cheese

Feta cheese is a tangy and salty cheese that is made from sheep or cow's milk or a mixture of sheep's and goat's milk. However, if you are lactose intolerant, consuming feta cheese can be problematic, as it contains lactose, a natural sugar in milk products. The good news is that there are ways to make feta cheese lactose-free that the blog will explain.

 

Essential Step of Preparation

To make lactose-free feta cheese, you will need to use lactose-free milk or milk that has been pre-treated with lactase enzyme. Lactase is the enzyme that breaks down lactose into simpler sugars, making it easier to digest for people with lactose intolerance. You can find lactase-treated milk in most grocery stores or health food stores.


 

Follow Steps

Heat the lactose-free milk in a large pot until it reaches 86°F (30°C). Add the starter culture and rennet, according to the instructions on the package.

  • Stir the mixture gently for a few seconds, and then let it sit undisturbed for about an hour until the curd has formed.
  • Cut the curd into small cubes and stir gently to release the whey.
  • Let the mixture sit for 10-15 minutes until the curd sinks to the bottom.
  • Scoop the curd into a cheesecloth-lined mold and press it down gently. Let it sit for a few hours until it has firmed up.
  • Remove the cheese from the mold and place it in a brine solution with salt and water. Let it sit in the brine for a few hours or overnight.
  • Remove the cheese from the brine, wrap it, and store it in the refrigerator.

 

By following these steps, you can make feta cheese lactose free that is safe for people with lactose intolerance to consume. You can also read many interesting dish preparation methods from the WhyNotDIY website, so visit us now.
