Plain cream cheese
2 liters(67oz) pasteurized, daily whole milk
2-3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1 lemon juice
Salt to taste
Truffle oil cream cheese
1 liter (34 oz) pasteurized, daily whole milk
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1,5 tablespoons truffle oil
1/2 lemon juice
Salt to taste
Basil and walnut cheese
2 liters (67 oz) pasteurized, daily whole milk
4 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
2 tablespoons butter
1 lemon juice
A small bunch of basil
A handful (50 gr., 1,5-2 oz) of walnut
Salt to taste
• To make our own cream cheese, first we need to boil the milk. If you are going to use raw milk, you have to keep the milk over 72 C (162 F) about 15 seconds or boil for 2-3 minutes. If you are using pasteurized milk like I do, just boiling it will be enough.
• Boil 2 liters of milk on high heat, then turn the heat down to the lowest when it’s at boiling point, and pour 1 lemon juice over it. You will see the curdle form immediately. At this point, don’t stir too much and wait for curdle to gather.
• When the milk curdles and the green layer appears, collect the curdle with a sieve.
• While the cheese is still hot add salt to taste. At this point, you already made a cheese and it is called ‘lor’ in Turkish. Don’t let the leftover water to waste. You can use it to make soup, give it to your pets, water your plants with it, or even for drink it yourself.
• To make the plain cream cheese, put the warm curdle in a food processor. Add 2-3 tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil and more salt if you so desire. This step should be done while the cheese is still hot. This is important to keep the cheese creamy and smooth.
• Pulse the food processor about 3 minutes until the cheese becomes smooth, continue for a few more minutes if there’s still granules in the cheese. After you’re done with this process, enjoy your homemade cream cheese!
• For truffle oil cream cheese, you can spare the half of your cream cheese, or boil 1 liter of pasteurized daily whole milk from scratch and curdle it with a half lemon’s juice. After same sieving steps like above, add the cheese, 2 tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil, and salt to taste into the food processor while the cheese is still hot. Pulse it again for 3 mins.
• After making cream cheese, add 1,5 tablespoons of truffle oil into the food processor and pulse until the cheese becomes completely smooth. We didn’t add the truffle oil when cheese is really hot to prevent the truffle oil from getting cooked.
• For basil-walnut cream cheese, curdle 2 liters of milk by following the steps above. While it is hot, put into the food processor and add 4 tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil, 2 tablespoons of butter in room temperature and salt to your taste.
• Pulse the food processor until the cheese becomes completely smooth. After that, transfer the cheese in a large bowl to cool down. Otherwise hot cheese will darken the basil.
• Wash and dry a small bunch of basil and chop roughly. Don’t forget the take thick stems out.
• Roughly chop a handful of walnuts as well.
• Mix the walnut and basil with cream cheese, make sure you give it a good mix.
• Then wrinkle a baking paper and lay it out on the counter. Wrinkles will help the paper not to roll back on itself.
• Spread the cheese on the bottom quarter of the paper and roll it into a giant sausage.
• Twist both ends.
• Refrigerate for 3-4 hours to harden, so to you will be able to slice the cheese.
• After that, remove it from the refrigerator, and enjoy your homemade basil-walnut cream cheese. Bon appetit! or afiyet olsun! As we say in Turkish.

Turkse pizza, kapsalon and döner are just the fastfood part of Turkish cuisine that's not even available in Turkey, its just a European (mostly German) thing.... Keep exploring Refika's channel if you want to learn more! She really puts effort and love in the Turkish kitchen and gives her own little twists to it! Je zult er geen spijt van krijgen!

    Hello from France! (you know, one of the contry were cheese is a religion). I have to say... I will definitly try that recipe soon. It looks really really good ^^' I didn't know much about turkish cooking, so thank you for starting to create videos about it!!! I will definitly continue to watch your videos in the futur! (Ps: It's called "bûche" in France, it pronounces the same way as "büs" in turkish)

    @@Refika So I have just finish my first batch. I tried the basil and walnut version. It was really good, even tho I didn't have fresh basil (but still used high quality dehydrated basil). I used guerand salt flower to add a sort of "salty punch" (it's the best salt you can have in France). And that's it :) I will try next time an agrum version with some orange zest with maybe at the core of the büs a bit of honey (now that I think about it, it sounds really really good ^^' ).

    In Indian, Persian, and Turkish languages (and probably in many others, as well) that looks like a common name for the same thing. You call paneer. Turks pronounce like "pay-neer" (written as peynir), and Persians much alike, as well. Don't know where it originates, though.

    Cheese is very expensive in Canada too. All dairy products are. Even our milk is much more expensive than our American cousins. The one saving grace w/ our dairy though is that it's illegal to give that nasty BGH (bovine growth hormone) to cattle here, so our milk and dairy is much nicer.
