For the curds and whey, let the mixture cool a bit before straining it through cheesecloth. What you end up with as cheese is based on the curds that remain.
In order to press matters, gather the cheesecloth's corners and gently compress to extract any surplus liquid. After a few hours of pressing, the cheese will be firmer.
Before pressing the last press, season to taste with salt or herbs to add your particular touch. Ultimately, this cheese belongs to you!
