How to cook cottage cheese custard?

Now how exactly to make custard Easter from cottage cheese? To make the dish tasty, use cottage cheese of a delicate consistency, without grains and foreign inclusions, quality oil, cream of 33% fat.

You can add not only raisins to the product, but also other dried fruits: dried apricots, prunes, figs, dates, dried apples or pears. Dried fruits treated with special solutions must be rinsed in hot waterand then rinse with cold.

According to this uncomplicated recipe custard easter from cottage cheese, you must complete the following preparatory steps.

Remove the butter from the refrigerator in advance and cut into slices so that it softens a little. The oil should become soft and pliable.

The raisins must be sorted out, rinsed well and dried on a napkin.

Easter cottage cheese should be fresh, dry, homogeneous. It is rubbed twice through a sieve. Do not pass it through a meat grinder, otherwise it will turn out to be crushed and viscous.

Now about what, in fact, is the process of making custard Easter from cottage cheese. Beat the eggs with a whisk and add cream, sugar and a little vanilla to them.

Place the resulting mixture on water bath and cook, stirring, until the mass acquires a consistency liquid caramel (in this case, you need to make sure that the water in the pan does not boil, otherwise the eggs will curl).

Then remove the mass from the heat, add oil and stir. Carefully pour the prepared mixture into the cottage cheese and beat the resulting mass with a mixer. Then add the raisins and mix.

We spread the resulting mass in a prepared form lined with a double layer of gauze (it should have holes where excess liquid will drain), put a flat plate on top and put a load on it, for example, a jar of water.

We place the product in the refrigerator for 12 hours. Then we spread it on a dish and decorate it with candied fruits and berries.

We bake cakes and many other things delicious pastries of yeast dough... Such a tradition came from my great-grandmother and grandmother, and my mother still bakes delicious Easter pastries to this day.

But somehow none of them cooked cottage cheese Easter. Maybe someone cooked, of course, but it didn’t stick in my childhood memory. For some reason it always seemed to me that it was very difficult, and to cook such holiday treat not for everyone.

And so I thought, until I cooked my first treat in this regard. To my great surprise, it turned out to be not difficult at all. Well, in any case, no more difficult than anything. It was only difficult at one time to find a pasochny for sale. And therefore, my first products, I cooked in a colander, decorating them with colored millet.

Of course, they did not have the letters "ХВ" (Christ is risen), traditional for such a case, and there were no other symbols of the resurrection of Jesus Christ, such as a cross, a spear, sprouted grains of wheat, young sprouts and flowers, but still it was she - real, traditional, cottage cheese, exactly what it should have been.

Of course, let's start today's selection with the most basic of them - with the royal one. Why is it called that? Because it contains a lot of different dried fruits, nuts, candied fruits. Sometimes they are added in large quantities, sometimes selectively - only something from nuts and something from dried fruits. But certainly these flavor-improving additives are present in it.

Nowadays, all this abundance is enough in stores, and earlier it was impossible to buy it in an ordinary store, they brought all these goodies just for royal table from distant countries.

Therefore, Easter was considered with the addition of dried fruits and nuts, and all kinds of overseas spices - "royal". And the peasants prepared the usual, simple, without any additives.

So now almost all of them that are being prepared can be considered "royal". And here is one of these recipes:

We need:

  • fat cottage cheese - 500 gr
  • yolks - 3 - 4 pieces
  • sour cream - 200 gr
  • butter - 100 gr
  • sugar - 100 gr
  • vanilla sugar -1 tsp
  • raisins - 100 gr
  • almonds, or any other nuts - a handful

Preparation:

1. Rinse the raisins and pour boiling water over for 20 minutes. Then drain the water, and put the raisins on two layers of paper towels, and blot it with another layer so that there is no water left.


2. It is best to use fatty cottage cheese, from which the treat is especially tasty. It must be passed through a sieve, and not even once, but twice. You should get a curd mass without grains, so it turns out to be more tender.


You can also punch the mass with a blender or pass it twice through a meat grinder. You can choose any method.

3. Add yolks, sugar and vanilla sugar to the grated curd. Stir with a spatula.

Usually, only yolks are used for such a treat. Although there are recipes where they cook from whole eggs. It will turn out delicious in any case, but since the holiday is special, I cook using only yolks.

4. Add sour cream and continue stirring until smooth.


5. Remove the butter from the refrigerator in advance, cut it into cubes and leave on the table at room temperature. It should become soft and pliable. It is better not to use a microwave for these purposes.


Oil is best taken at 82.5%. And in general, only such oil can, according to scientists, be used for food. Butter 72.5% is trans fat, or vegetable oil highly low quality... There is no benefit from it, but the harm to the body can be significant.

6. Add the already slightly melted butter to the mixture and beat with a mixer until a fluffy homogeneous mass is achieved.


7. Prepare thick-walled pan with the same thick bottom. Put the resulting mass in it and put on the smallest fire. Since the walls of the pan are thick, the mass will not burn, but will quietly simmer over the fire and the consistency will turn out as it should.


8. Cook the mass until the first bubbles appear on the surface, that is, until it boils.


9. As soon as the first "gurgles" appear on the surface, remove the pan from the heat and place in a larger pan filled with cold water.


10. Now our task is to cool the mass. In order for this to happen faster, you need to prepare ice in advance and put it in a saucepan with cold water.

At this stage, the most uninteresting work begins, the mass needs to be constantly stirred until it cools down. It is best to use a wooden spatula for this.

11. The finished cooled mass should thicken. When this happens, cover it with a lid and send it to the refrigerator for two hours.

12. Prepare the paste box and cheesecloth. Pasochnits are made of wood and plastic, you can use the one that is. If there is none at all, then prepare a colander or sieve. It is important that the container has holes for draining the whey.


Earlier, when I didn’t have a pastern, my husband made one himself from a new square flower pot. He cut the bottom of it, and I got what I dreamed of.

It is desirable that even a self-made pasochny has two inlets. While the product is infused, excess liquid will have to leave. And it is through the bottom hole that it usually comes out.

13. And so, the next stage. Roll the gauze in two layers, moisten it in water and squeeze. Cover the entire surface of the pasobox.

14. Remove the curd mixture from the refrigerator, add raisins and nuts to it. Nuts can be put in whole or chopped. Very good to add almond petals, they are thin, and with them it turns out to be especially delicate. But in general, as mentioned above, you can add any other dried fruits, nuts, candied fruits and zest.


15. Fill in the form with the mixture obtained. Cover with gauze, rolling it up with an envelope, put a small board and put oppression on top. A jar filled with water can be used as it.


16. Put the mold in a bowl and put it in the refrigerator for 1.5 - 2 days. Do not remove oppression, it will allow you to compress the entire mass and squeeze out excess liquid.


17. When the time is up, take out the form and remove the walls.


Then, gently and smoothly, without making any sudden movements, remove the gauze.


18. Serve and enjoy!

As you can see, there is nothing difficult in cooking. Of course, in time it takes a lot of time, but there is nothing wrong with that, because all this time Easter is in the refrigerator and is being prepared by itself. And the cooking process itself does not take much time.


I tried to describe this recipe in particular detail. The following recipes will also be detailed, but without lyrical digressions. Therefore, reading will take much less time. But if nuances are needed, then be sure to read all subsequent recipes along with the first.

How to tasty and properly cook Easter cottage cheese at home

Easter can be raw, custard and baked.

  • Raw - prepared without any heat treatment, only from raw products. Therefore, they need the freshest ingredients, especially if you are cooking with eggs.

Eggs should not only be fresh, but also thoroughly washed with soap. Then, so that the smell of soap does not remain, they must be thoroughly rinsed under running water and wiped off with paper towels.

  • Custard - prepared using heat treatment. As a rule, milk with sugar is heated. Often eggs added to the liquid mixture are also cooked.


A feature of heat treatment is that, as a rule, the mixture is not brought to a boil, especially if eggs are present in it.

Therefore, such heat treatment carried out in a water bath. With it, it is less likely that we will overboil the mixture, that it will burn, and that the eggs will curl.

As soon as the mixture thickens, it is usually immediately removed from the heat and placed in a cold or even ice water, right along with the pan.

Cottage cheese, dried fruits, candied fruits, spices, and often butter are added to the cooled mixture.

  • Baked - cooked in the oven and very tender. They can easily fall off and lose their shape. They need time to cool completely before they can be pulled out of the mold.

There are also such options:

  • simple - prepared with the simplest set of products - cottage cheese, sour cream, sugar and salt
  • "Royal" - are prepared with products that improve the taste and aroma of the product. This and various flavoring additives in the form of vanilla, spices, lemon or orange peel, as well as dried fruits, candied fruits, nuts, chocolate, etc.

General principles of making Easter from cottage cheese

For all types of holiday treats, there are general principles cooking.

  • only the freshest products must be used for cooking, especially for cottage cheese, all accompanying dairy products, and eggs
  • cottage cheese is best taken at least 9%
  • sour cream at least 20%
  • cream - from 20% if you just add it to the mixture, and 33% if you cook with whipped cream
  • oil needs 82.5%. Butter percentage lower is already not butter as such, it is trans fat, margarine vegetable origin Low quality
  • most often in recipes only yolks from eggs are used.If you use proteins, then it is better to beat them, and add already in this form
  • you can cook from ready-made curd, but you can cook it yourself by fermenting milk, fermented baked milk or sour cream. There are such recipes in today's selection.
  • as mentioned above, dried fruits, nuts, candied fruits, spices and other flavoring additives are used in royal Easter. Also used food colorings, such as turmeric, cocoa, carrots. All this allows you to improve not only the taste, but also the appearance.


  • for the formation of blanks, special forms are used - pasochny. They are made of wood and plastic. As a rule, the letters “ХВ” (Christ is Risen) or other symbols of the resurrection of Christ are embossed on the reverse side.


Here it must be said that such a special form symbolizes the tomb of the Lord. That is why Easter has a certain form and special symbolism.

  • if you do not have such a shape, then it can be prepared in a colander, sieve, or in a flower pot with a cut-off bottom (I already talked about this at the beginning of the article). That is, you need a mold with two holes. In one of them, the curd mass is laid out and oppression is applied, and through the other excess liquid flows out - whey. That is, the product is pressed and released from excess liquid.
  • pasochnitsa, or another form in which we will spread the mixture, must be covered with a cloth. As a rule, it is gauze in two layers, or a thin dense fabric. In extreme cases, cling film can be used.

Why is it better to use fabric? Because it can be infused in the refrigerator for up to two days, and the fabric contributes to the better "breath" of the product (so to speak).

  • the mixture laid out in the form should be covered with the ends of the gauze. Then a board is placed on it, or some other "platform" on which the oppression can be installed.
  • the form itself is placed in a bowl, the whey will flow into it. It must be drained periodically. The product is considered ready when the liquid stops accumulating in the bowl.
  • in almost all recipes, it must be kept for 12 to 48 hours in the cold, that is, in the refrigerator.
  • the ready-made festive treat is freed from the mold, the gauze is carefully removed and decorated different ways... Decorate with whipped whites with colored millet, glaze, the same dried fruits, candied fruits and nuts, sprinkle with cocoa, etc.
  • the treat can be stored in the refrigerator for up to two days

3. Add eggs, sugar, sour cream and butter to the curd and mix together until smooth.


4. Put the saucepan over low heat and bring the curd to a boil. But in no case should you really boil it. We just wait for the first bubbles and remove the pan from the heat.

As it warms up, the curd will soften and by the time it is ready it will resemble sour cream in consistency.

Ready cottage cheese should be placed directly in a saucepan in a deep bowl of cold water and beat with a whisk until it cools down to room temperature... Then add dried fruits and nuts and mix again.


5. Take a pasochny, put it on a flat plate with a narrow top and spread with one or two layers of gauze.


6. Fill the form with curd mass, cover the edges of the gauze. Then we put a saucer on the base of the future pyramid, and on top we put liter jar with water so that it acts as a press.


7. We put this whole structure in the refrigerator overnight so that the glass will have excess liquid.

You need to keep Easter under pressure from 8 hours to 2 days

Then we take the Easter out of the refrigerator, turn it over and carefully remove the form, after which we also carefully remove the gauze. You can decorate Easter with confectionery sprinkles, chopped nuts or chocolate chips.

How to cook egg-free cottage cheese with gelatin and poppy seed filling

If you do not risk getting involved with not fully heat-treated eggs, then they can be excluded from the recipe, but no less delicious sweetness can be prepared.

Preparation:

1. Pour gelatin into a small bowl and add some water at room temperature to it. Water is needed literally a couple of fingers thick. Stir and leave to swell for 15 minutes.


After it swells, put the bowl in a saucepan with a little water (so that it does not reach the middle of the bowl). We send the pan to a small fire and wait until the gelatin dissolves completely. Then immediately remove the pan from the stove.


2. In a separate deep bowl, combine the cream with vanilla sugar and half cooked regular sugar... Pour gelatin there and start adding cottage cheese in portions, interrupting it with a blender.


3. Go to poppy filling... The poppy must first be chopped with a blender or in a coffee grinder. For further cooking, we need a saucepan. We pour chopped poppy into it, pour milk and add the remaining sugar. Mix everything and put on a small fire for 15 minutes. Stir occasionally.

During this time, the milk will completely evaporate and only the sweet sticky poppy mass will remain in the pan.


4. We put it on a plate and, while it has not cooled down, add raisins washed in boiling water and dried with a towel.

You don't need to pre-soak the raisins, the point is that it will absorb all the moisture remaining in the poppy and the filling will acquire the correct consistency


5. Dry the nuts on a baking sheet in the oven and chop with a knife and mix with poppy seeds.


6. Take a pasochny and place it with a narrow top on a flat plate. We lay out the walls of the pasochny with a double folded wet gauze.

After lining, it should still hang from the pasochny enough gauze so that it can completely cover the base of the pasochny


7. Put the curd mass in the jar so that it is half full. Then we put a layer a couple of centimeters thick on the inner walls so that the center of the pasochny remains empty. We will put the poppy filling in there.


8. Fill the resulting cavity with the filling. We do this carefully so as not to damage the curd edges.


9. Seal the tray with the rest of the curd and cover the base with gauze. Then we put a saucer on the base, and a 1-liter jar of water on top. And under such oppression, we leave Easter in the refrigerator overnight so that the cottage cheese is compressed, and all the excess liquid flows out.


10. The next day we take out the pasochny, carefully open it and remove the gauze.

You need to do this very carefully, do not forget that Easter is stuffed and it is not as dense as usual
