Cirek (Easter Cheese)
Ingredients:
15 eggs
1 quart milk
5 to 6 whole black peppers, crushed
Pinch of salt
Method:
Pour milk into saucepan and bring to a boil. Beat
eggs slightly and add gradually to the hot milk. Cook over low heat
for about 7 minutes. Add pepper and salt. Stir constantly to
prevent scorching. Pour mixture into a cheesecloth or linen towel.
Squeeze and tie lightly. Hang and let liquid drain for about 2
hours. Cover with wet napkin and refrigerate. After chilling for
about 12 hours, the cheese can be sliced about 1/2-inch thick and
served with the Easter menu.
