HOW TO MAKE COTTAGE CHEESE - SMIERKASE



How to Make Cottage Cheese - Smierkase image

An heirloom recipe impractical for most modern cooks (don't know how this would work with storebought, pasteurized and homogenized milk). If desired, add 1/2 teaspoon of grated onion, caraway seeds, green onion tops, or garlic to the cheese. From the Pennsylvania Dutch chapter of the United States Regional Cookbook, Culinary Arts institute of Chicago, 1947. Posted as a historical novelty. Cooking time is approximate draining time.

COTTAGE CHEESE PANCAKES



Cottage Cheese Pancakes image

A breakfast of cottage cheese with ketchup and pepper might seem scandalous to some, but to President Nixon it was standard morning fare. The cottage cheese in these flapjacks adds nice texture and an old-fashioned flavor reminiscent of blintzes. If you want to top them with something red, I suggest strawberry syrup.
