Cheese of the Duchess Recipe

Ingredients:

• 2 cups of whole milk
• 1 cup of heavy cream
• 1/2 teaspoon of salt
• 1 tablespoon of lemon juice

Instructions:

2. Add the salt and lemon juice to the mixture and stir gently until well combined.
3. Reduce the heat to low and continue to stir gently for another 5 minutes.
4. Remove the saucepan from the heat and let it sit undisturbed for 10 minutes.
