What is the difference between Cheese and Paneer?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Paneer is a fresh cheese made by curdling the milk with lemon juice, vinegar, curd (yogurt), or citric acid. Unlike other types of cheese, it neither aged nor fermented. Thus, it can be used right away after prepared. It gets firm and non-melting, making itself quite useful in grilling purposes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why Use Instant Pot for making Paneer at Home<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Paneer can be the easiest recipe to make at home. I prepare it by boiling fresh milk in a saucepan or a stovetop and then curdling by lemon juice or vinegar. But the only problem with this method is that milk gets sticky at the bottom near the surface of the saucepan. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

It gets flecks of brown that spoil the cheese\u2014ever experienced such thing? This is hard to swallow. I never want to compromise on the taste and texture of the cheese. That’s where instant pot comes into play.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There is no such phenomenon if we use an instant pot for boiling milk. It neither sticks with it and nor burns at all in it. Happy?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The following are the reasons that will enable you to know why it is good to make Paneer in an instant pot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
