Tonight a bunch of us got together for cheese-making fun at our friend's place. One friend made Irish soda bread while we hung out and watched from the bar stools on the other side (the kitchen space allows one person working at a time). Once that was in the oven we started tonight's recipe: "lemon cheese". It took a few hours, and the general process was to pour milk, lipase, and lemon juice into a huge pot, letting it come to temp and curdle, then strain it through cheesecloth for an hour. It comes out looking like ricotta or very soft cottage cheese. It went great with the warm soda bread!
