Delicious Queso Blanco Recipe with 3 Ingredients

Ingredients

Servings:
8
  • 1 cup Queso Blanco cheese
  • 1 cup Milk (Whole milk recommended for creaminess)
  • 2 tablespoons Lemon juice (Freshly squeezed for best flavor)

Instructions

5 steps

  1. Prepare the Ingredients

    Gather all the ingredients: Queso Blanco cheese, milk, and lemon juice.

    Ensure the cheese is at room temperature for easier mixing.
  2. Heat the Milk

    In a saucepan, heat the milk over medium heat until it is warm but not boiling.

    Stir occasionally to prevent the milk from scorching.
  3. Add Lemon Juice

    Once the milk is warm, remove it from heat and stir in the lemon juice slowly.

    This will help curdle the milk and create a creamy texture.
  4. Mix in Queso Blanco

    Add the Queso Blanco cheese to the milk and lemon mixture. Stir well until combined.

    Use a whisk for a smoother consistency.
  5. Cool and Serve

    Let the mixture cool for a few minutes, then transfer it to a serving dish.

    Chill in the refrigerator for a firmer texture if desired.
