I whipped up a batch of farmer's cheese while baking bread this morning. My family loves the cheese and the chickens love the whey, everyone wins!

I did a small batch today, just 4 cups of milk with 1 tablespoon of apple cider vinegar. I usually use this recipe Recipe

Trying to figure out what those dark chips are in the pix on right???
I also make farmers cheese,,, but I use the natural bacteria to sour the milk. I culture it from sour cream.
Never tried the vinegar method,,, I know it is much faster process.
I drain,, and do not press out. Like that consistency for baking cakes, as well as eating otherwise.

Sorry, I should've said before, I added a little dried basil and some garlic salt.

Made porridge bread yesterday ( at 11pm cos the dough was faster than planned , I tested using whole bread spices ( boiled them with the oats) and feared it wouldn’t taste good, but it does, except if you don’t like caraway seeds, the flavor does get intense when using whole instead of ground up seeds

I believe I have solved the mystery behind my rabbits death.

When you think about it, the fence is low enough that a raccoon, fox, coyote, or hawk could get in, or any other predator, for that matter. However, they did not take the body when they killed the rabbit. I was puzzling about this, and then I finally solved the mystery.

A raccoon might be big enough that it could easily kill the rabbit, and then get out with it. A hawk, or any other large predator, like a dog or fox, could definitely get away with the corpse after killing it. However, this is not the case. It was left behind. Also, most of it was uneaten. Only the head and one front leg was torn apart.

This leads me to conclude that the culprit, which is very common for our area, was a feral cat, who killed the rabbit, and left it for dead.
