- In a large, heavy saucepan, add in the lowfat milk and the cream for a richer fromage blanc. In a mixing bowl, combine the buttermilk and lemon juice and stir to combine well. Add in the buttermilk-lemon juice mix to the lowfat milk and begin to heat the lowfat milk, over low heat and very slowly, to 175 degrees. While the lowfat milk is heating, stir only twice, making 2 strokes each time, with a heat-proof spatula or possibly other flat utensil. Check the temperature often. As soon as the temperature reaches 175 degrees, remove the pot from the heat and allow to sit, undisturbed, for 10 min.
- Line a large colander with 2 layers of fine cheesecloth and set over a large bowl. Gently ladle the curds and whey into the colander and allow to drain till the drips of whey slows, about 2 min. Tie the corners of the cheesecloth together to create a hanging pouch, and hang pouch over a bowl and allow to drain till the cheese reaches the desired consistency.
- Serve as is, with preserves, honey or possibly fresh fruit, or possibly add in salt or possibly fresh herbs, to taste, and enjoy as a savory appetizer. If a rich cheese is desired, spoon or possibly pour a bit of heavy cream over the top before serving. Also, if a very smooth product is desired, beat the cheese briefly with an electric mixer before serving.
- Chill till ready to serve, up to 1 week. If cheese is marinated in oil with fresh herbs, it will keep, refrigerated, for up to 1 month.
