Ingredients
- 1 slice sourdough bread
- 0.5 whole avocado
- 2 whole egg
- 1 whole tomato
- 1 whole red onion
- a few sprigs dill
- to taste extra virgin olive oil
- to taste sea salt
Homemade cottage cheese
- 1 3/5 qt milk
- 3 tbsp white vinegar
- a little water
Instructions
- 1Add 1.5 L of fresh milk to a pot and heat over medium heat, stirring until bubbles appear on the sides.
- 2Turn off the heat and stir in three small tablespoons of white vinegar, allowing the milk to curdle and form curds.
- 3Cover the pot with a towel and let it rest for about 45 minutes until the curds separate from the whey.
- 4After the resting period, strain the curds from the whey using a cloth and transfer the resulting cottage cheese into a wooden bowl; keep the whey for later use.
- 5Rinse the curds with a small amount of water to remove excess vinegar, then drain and transfer the cottage cheese to a serving bowl.
- 6Serve the homemade cottage cheese with a slice of sourdough bread, half an avocado, two whole eggs, sliced tomato, sliced red onion, a few sprigs of dill, a drizzle of extra‑virgin olive oil, and a pinch of sea salt for a protein‑rich breakfast.
