curds and wey?

Answer 1

Whey is a by-product of cheese making. It is formed when the curds separate from the milk or cream. After the cheese curds are formed, the remaining liquid is called whey. This liquid is watery and thin. Sometimes whey has a tinge of bluish color, but this depends on the quality and type of milk used.

Whey can be made from any type of milk, with cow's milk being the most popular in the United States. Goat's milk is commonly used in the Middle East and in some desert areas, camel's milk is used in the cheese making process.

Whey is also formed in the making of yogurt, being the thin liquid that forms on top of the settled yogurt. This can be drained off and added to shakes, smoothies or other liquid drinks for added protein.

Most people are familiar with the old nursery rhyme, Little Miss Muffet as she was eating her curds and whey. This type of cheese would be similar to cottage cheese and made by allowing milk to sour and naturally separate into curds and whey. While this method of making cheese may not sound appetizing to most people, it is a method used around the world in many different cultures
