What can I do with uncultured curd?

I got a cheese kit, and I didn't realize that the rennet and culture packets were Identical until I had them out of their respective boxes.  I thought I knew which was which, but when I came back to check it an hour later, it was already coagulated.  I put it in the fridge because I didn't know what else to do.  I refuse to waste the fresh, raw milk I started with, but what should I do?

We tried making mozzarella with some of it.  It ended up like something between moz and cottage.  I think we didn't get it hot enuff for it to make good mozzarella.  Was good on pizza, even if it didn't melt much.

Better ideas to try with what's left?

Good job figuring out what to do. Glad it tasted good!
