| Fresh milk ready for the fire. |
There are always a few rare opportunites to learn different methods of cooking when you travel. For instance, like making cheese........it worked! With this family's help, their cow milk was turned into cheese. I probably would not have this on my list of favorites, but then again I have not acquired a taste for this particular kind of cheese. Sort of chewy, a tad flavorless, but fresh! I am sure it was perfect and very suitable for this nomadic family lifestyle.

Straining the curds
Necessary to press out all the moisture.
A weight was placed on top to add extra pressure for releasing all the liquid. This remained on top for about 15 minutes. I have no idea what that weight belonged to ~ maybe part of a vehicle. It was clean.......
There you have it! Ready to slice, serve and taste in under an hours time.

What a fantastic trip! I'm so enjoying your photos.
Nice photos! From what I can see, it's basically paneer, the fastest way to make cheese with fresh milk.
