Plum “cheese” is a healthy and tasty preparation for the winter, flavored with spices or an unusual fruit “cheese”.
Fruit “cheese” from plums is a preparation of plum puree, first boiled to the consistency of marmalade, and then formed into the shape of cheese. The taste of the unusual preparation depends on what spices you want to use during preparation.
Do you want to try what kind of unusual “cheese” this is? Then let's get to work!
To begin with, you need to take good ripe plums, the seeds of which can be easily separated.
Take them out and weigh the resulting slices. For every kilogram of plum, measure 100 g of sugar and sprinkle it over the fruit.
Let stand until the juice comes out of the plums.
Then place the bowl with the plum halves on the stove and cook until a thick mass is formed in the pan.
Add cilantro seeds to the resulting jam and mix thoroughly so that they are distributed throughout the entire volume.
Next, making cheese involves forming the so-called head. When the boiled plum mass has cooled completely, it is transferred to a linen napkin and shaped.
Next, you should tie the ends of the napkin, place the head on a board or flat plate, cover the top again with a cutting board, and put pressure on it. You need to keep the fruit “cheese” like this for three days, and then release it from the fabric.
First, lightly coat the finished head with vegetable oil, preferably refined, and then sprinkle with cilantro seeds.
Homemade preparations, tightly packed in parchment paper, are best stored in a cool, dark place.
This unusual “cheese” can be eaten as a sweet dessert, but can also be used as a medicinal product. Plums, especially in such a boiled form, have a good effect on the functioning of the intestines and remove harmful toxins from the body.
