yes, I prefer large curd. In the last year or so I have been able, if
I look very carefully, to find one or two cartons of large curd.
Compared to probably a hundred cartons of small curd in every possible
configuration. (Winco and Albertsons)

large curd was the most prevalent when I was growing up. Don't know
what happened.

what is it that you buy, large curd or small curd? Because Daisy
comes in both.

This must be more widespread than I thought. I've tried 4
supermarket chais here in Phoenix, and when visiting in Ohio I found
the same was true there. 'Tis a pity!

Can't you make your own? I assume it is similar stuff to the curds I used
to make for Yorkshire curd tarts. Very easy. Warm milk, mix with rennet
and hang in a muslim bag to drain.

I guess the muslim bag is to make sure the tarts turn out halal.

Yes, I suppose I could, but just never thought of it. The next time
I shop and fail to find the large curd cottage cheese, I'll give it a
try. I bought a few Yorkshire Curd Tarts a couple of times and
really enjoyed them, but have never had a recipe. The ones I bought
were delicious, with plenty of currants and flavored with rosewater.

Thank you so much, O. I never expected a recipe. Now I will have
to make some cheese curds. Rennet tablets and fresh whole milk are
now on my shopping list. I'm guessing I can use my jelly bag to
drain the mixture. The tarts are in my future! :-)


Wayne Boatwright

Brilliant They are a favourite here too) I started to make my own
curds many years ago when I lived in Malta and couldn't get them. I nearly
always have a bag of curds, hanging over a bowl to drain LOL

I have made my own for many years but just now, as you know, we are down on
the farm and I can buy good ones ready made,although I never think they are
as good as the ones made at home

One thing I forgot to ask... Must the milk be Un-pasteurized or will
pasturized work? When I wanted to make clotted cream I had to go to
a dairy farm to get milk that was pasterized. It's not sold in
stores here.

I just use regular pasteurised whole milk.

I just read the recipe I posted. It seems a bit weird so I just sent you on
