  • Pr. Very nice commentary, who knew how to do this – not me! And, my Favorite dessert is cheesecake so the homemade sour cream would be delicious instead of commercial (kind). Actually, a simple process- butter- unless it is your talent that makes it so! Doamne Ajuta! Glory to Jesus Christ!

    Thank you again. Amazing recipe ! I make farmers cheese. I use a fine mesh strainer, but can a cheese cloth be used for your butter ? My hands don’t work as well as yours lol.

      Sophie, I am not quite sure if the cheese cloth will work well. Would like to make farmer’s cheese myself one day. Can you share a recipe?
