Violation of the preparation technology may result in the cottage cheese acquiring a pronounced “sourness”.
If the product is not spoiled, it can be consumed despite this taste.
However, not all gourmets will enjoy such a meal.
Fortunately, the product can be "fixed" without the need for baking soda or granulated sugar.
Place the product in a deep plate and pour milk over it.
The container with the contents does not need to be placed in the refrigerator. Leave the poured cottage cheese at room temperature.
You will need to wait for about half an hour. Then you need to throw the cottage cheese into a colander. You can use gauze.
There's no need to pour milk down the sink: it makes sense to make the drink an ingredient in pancake batter.
And you can safely eat cottage cheese: now there will be no extra "sourness". And you won't have to sprinkle the mass with sugar.
In addition, the “milk” procedure will make the product’s consistency ideal: the cottage cheese will be incredibly tender.
