Making cheese involves a few key steps:
1. **Heat Milk:** Warm milk to the required temperature based on the type of cheese you’re making.
2. **Add Starter Culture:** Introduce a culture or acid to ripen the milk.
3. **Add Rennet:** Stir in rennet to coagulate the milk, forming curds.
4. **Cut and Heat Curds:** Cut the curds into small pieces, then gently heat to release whey.
5. **Drain Whey:** Separate curds from whey using a cheesecloth.
6. **Shape and Salt:** Mold the curds and add salt for flavor and preservation.
