🧀 Yes, you can make your own cheese!

At Bauman College, our Holistic Chef students explore traditional cooking techniques, including making fresh paneer from scratch during our Dairy and Dairy Alternatives unit.

From separating the curds and whey to pressing the finished cheese, students get to experience the entire process before putting their homemade paneer to work in a flavorful saag paneer. 👩‍🍳🌿

It's a great example of what happens when you slow down, get hands-on, and learn how food is made from the ground up.

Would you try making your own paneer?
