Cottage Cheese
Image: carbonated
"Among civilians this was a common way of using up old milk, but it would have seemed like an emperors dish to a hungry soldier."
"If you have milk which is turning sour, cover it and set aside in a warm place to curdle. When it becomes a curd, strain it to remove the liquid. Place the curd in a clean muslin bag and suspend it with the pointed end over a bowl. Put in a cool place for about 12 hours then remove the cheese and flavor it with a little cream and some butter."
