Easy Homemade Cream Cheese

Making your own cream cheese is much easier than it sounds. This simple recipe transforms fresh full-cream milk into a soft, creamy spread using only lemon juice and salt. Enjoy it plain, add herbs for a savoury variation or use it to make dips and cream cheese icing. Remember to save the leftover whey—it is wonderful in bread, pancakes and marinades.
