Title: Afraid to salt
Post by: ceebee60 on August 13, 2011, 07:27:37 PM

Hi-
I've made Queso Blanco several times now, and get fairly good results. The only thing that seems to vary is the saltiness. I'm using 1 U.S. gal milk, 1/4 cup vinegar, then salt to taste. I've tried kosher salt, sea salt, but can't seem to nail down a good amount. Any thoughts on why the saltiness would vary??

Take care....

Moisture level when salting, if more moisture is there still in need of draining the more salt will "wash off".
