DAIRY RIVERS, COTTAGE CHEESE BANKS

ā€œAccording to Evgeny Antonov, head of the Rosselkhoznadzor department for New York, New York and Tula regions, in 2015 more than 16 thousand tons of palm oil were imported and officially registered through the New York region, with which unscrupulous producers can dilute dairy products, increasing their volumes by several times. Now one in eight samples shows adulteration &bdquo dairy.ā€. From print

After such news you want to run to the kitchen and throw out all the dairy products from the fridge. Itā€™s just scary to buy yogurt, cheese, sour cream, cottage cheese. After all, the probability of buying a fake is quite high. But giving up dairy products is not an option at all. Oursson offers a simple solution ā€“ you can make all these delicacies yourself. The best thing is that you do not have to spend hours in front of the stove. Everything happens by itself, you just need to add to the milk ā€œa pinch of magicā€, leave the mixture in a warm place for a few hours, and voila ā€“ ryazhenka, kefir, yogurt at your service. A little more will have to tinker with cottage cheese, but also there is nothing complicated to do.

CHEMICAL

What is the magic of transformation?? In order to obtain different sour milk products, ready-to-use dried starter products consisting of combinations of beneficial bacteria should be added to milk and then the mixture should be left to ferment at a certain temperature. Yogurt makers, multicookers with yogurt mode, etc.d.

You can keep sourdough starter packs in the refrigerator and they take up minimum space. They are convenient to take to the cottage moms with babies, and then the family does not have to stuff the trunk of the car on weekends bulky packets of dairy products and worry about their fate in the inevitable hot traffic jams.

Of course, the milk will have to buy, but, agree, it is available in the city and out of town. And in some areas of summer vacation you can even find a grandmother with a cow and buy a natural product. If we talk about the purchased milk, then, as we know, it does not contain palm oil, so it can safely be used.

All you need is sourdough, milk and any appliance suitable for making yoghurts.

PINCH OF MAGIC

Oursson assortment includes dry sourdough for making yoghurt, ryazhenka, kefir, yogurt and cottage cheese. More information on the current range ā€“ orsik

Each portion is packed in a triangular bag. These ā€œremindersā€ of the delicious milk packets from our childhood ā€“ those over 40 know what they mean. You can buy a pack of 5 servings, you can buy a pack of 10 servings. Each small sachet gives you a liter of finished product.

All Orsik starters belong to the AiBi group and are compositions of different groups of microorganisms that influence the fermentation of milk and are beneficial for people.

Letā€™s dive a little bit into the world of biochemistry and give a brief explanation of what kind of bacteria is contained in the starter.

Lactobacillus lactis subsp. Lactis and Lactococcus lactis subsp. Cremoris

Have a direct effect on the digestion of lactose, resulting in the formation of lactic acid. When they enter the human body there is a normalization of the bacterial composition of the microflora of the small and large intestine and the activation of the current redox processes. Improving fat metabolism, lactobacillus helps to combat obesity, prevent the emergence of atherosclerosis.

Streptococcus thermophilus

Thermophilic streptococcus quickly increases the acidity level of milk, which is extremely important in terms of the safety of dairy products, because lactic acid inhibits many types of pathogenic and conditionally pathogenic microorganisms. Polysaccharides, which are synthesized produced by this bacterium, contribute to the formation of a smooth dense consistency of dairy products with a characteristic pleasant sour-milk taste and smell, and these compounds have a high binding adhesive function, which slows down the process of separation secretion of whey , which means that in the manufacture, for example, yogurt or sour cream one can do without thickeners and stabilizers.

Lactococcus lactis subsp. Lactis

Gives milk a sour, pleasant taste, an active acid-builder at the beginning of fermentation. Produces the active antibiotic nisin.

Lactobacillus bulgaricus

Bulgarian bacillus is probably the best-known bacterium. But few people know that Ilya Mechnikov considered it the main tool in the fight against aging and self-oxidation of the human body.

Kefir mushroom

Symbiosis of over ten different microorganisms growing and multiplying together. Mushroom contains: lactobacillus, acetic acid bacteria, lactic yeast.

Kefir, which results from the life of the kefir fungus, is the product of both lactic and alcoholic fermentation

Starters from Orsik are available at the official online store orsik or in stores such as Auchan, Hyperglobus, Selgross.

TEST. YOGURT, KEFIR, AND RYAZHENKA

The algorithm for making these products is the same, the only thing I took for making ryazhenka was melted milk.

My assistant ā€“ OURSSON FE0205D/GA fermenter ā€“ detailed specifications can be found here: /tests/test_fermentatora_oursson_fe0205d_jogurt_i_kvas_poluchilsya_vysshij_klass/

In the evening I thoroughly mixed one sachet of the selected starter in a liter of milk and left it in the working device in the fermentation mode. In the morning took out the bowl with the finished warm product, put it to cool on the balcony or in the refrigerator.

THE TASTIEST: THE BOTTOM LINE

YOGURT

Small appliances for kitchen

It turns out very delicate, thick and slightly sour. I like to use fattier milk ā€“ the creamy flavor of yogurt in this case goes well with fruit or jam.

Homemade yogurt in my house is not only a base for desserts. It replaced sour cream, I add it to salads, okroshka, sauces. Next up is making yogurt cakes and ice cream.

KEFIR

Yogurt makers

The most interesting ā€“ it is a living product, in which the process goes on even after the end of cooking. Depending on your health you can use ā€œyoungā€ kefir immediately after cooking or leave it to ā€œmatureā€ in the fridge. Some foodies prefer the kefir three days old, believing it to be the healthiest.

The main thing is that you know exactly when the kefir was born and you can be sure itā€™s fresh. Home kefir is also excellent as a base for many dishes and diets. Buckwheat on kefir, which is very popular with weight loss ladies, is more edible and not as sour in this case. Kefir with cinnamon ā€“ itā€™s really delicious. Well, of course, puffed pancakes, pancakes, pastries ā€“ the favorite treats of many children. Besides kefir is a perfect marinade for meat and poultry, kebabs get unusually soft and juicy.

RYAZENKA

Multicookers

Let me tell you right away, Iā€™m not a fan of ryazhenka and ready-made store-bought never evoked bright emotions in me. But the first time I tasted chilled homemade ryazhenka with strawberry jam changed my mind. Soft flavor, delicate consistency, and no excessive acidity ā€“ a great cooling summer dessert. If you have an imaginative approach to the fillings and use fresh berries, nuts, and pieces of candied fruits it is possible to prepare a restaurant-level dish in a couple of minutes and surprise unexpectedly appeared guests.

Of course, it is quite right for ryazhenka to first make melted milk from the usual. But even the store-bought analogues are exquisite and extremely delicious.
