Bangladeshi Cheese / Ponir / Paneer has its own flavour and style. In Bangladesh cheese (ponir) is made by fresh milk. But it is hard to find fresh milk in abroad. In that case you can use refrigerated milk, but you need bring it in normal temperature. Try not to use non pasturized/ homogenized milk. In Australia A2 is the only non pasteurized/ homogenized milk. Hope you will love the post. For help I am adding a video of it which is produced by Bangladesh Government.

 

Ingredients:

• 1 vegetarian rennet tablet

• ½ cup cool, chlorine-free water

• 2 litre milk

• Salt

Also needs small bamboo basket (or strainer), knife and bamboo stick or skewer.

Preparation:

  •  Dissolve the rennet into the water and stir to dissolve.
  • Pour milk into pot (no cast iron). Place over medium heat for 2 minutes to remove the coldness (if you have fresh milk omit this part).
  •  Pour the rennet solution and ½ teaspoon salt in milk and with a spoon stir it to ensure the solution is mixed well. (Note: one tablet works for 1-10 litres of milk).
  • Then you need to keep the milk in a place for at least a couple of hours with no movement.
  •  Cut the cheese with a knife into square and with your hand crumb it.
  •  With your hand try to gather all cheese one side.
  •  Place in a bamboo basket and squeeze to strain excess whey.
  •  Let it rest 10-12 hours, add 1 teaspoon salt or to taste and with a stick try to insert inside.
  • You can keep out Bangladeshi Cheese(ponir) 22-24 days outside in airtight container, 2 month in refrigerator and yearlong in freezer.

Tips:

  •  Please read carefully your rennet instruction.
  • You can use sour water (tok pani) instead of rennet tablet. To make sour water (tok pani) make mawa and milk together and rest for 10-12 hours to get sour water (tok pani).

 

পনির

 

উপকরণ:

  •  ১ ভেজিটেরিয়ান রেনেট ট্যাবলেট
  •  ১/২ কাপ পানি
  •  ২ লিটার দুধ
  •  লবন

এছাড়াও ছোট বাঁশের ঝুড়ি, ছুরি ও বাঁশের কঞ্চির প্রয়োজন।

প্রস্তুতি:

• পানিতে রেনেট ট্যাবলেট মিশিয়ে নিন।

• হাড়িতে দুধ ১-২ মিনিট গরম করি । ( তাজা দুধ হলে গরম করার দরকার নাই)

• দুধে রেনেট মিশ্রন এবং ১/২ চা চামচ লবণ দিয়ে ভাল মিশাই।( নোট: একটি ট্যাবলেট ১-১০ লিটার দুধে কাজ করে )

• একটি ছুরি দিয়ে পনির চৌকা করে কাটুন এবং হাত দিয়ে ভেগে টুকরা করুন।

• হাত দিয়ে সব পনির এক পাশে জড়ো করুন।

• পনির বাঁশের ঝুড়িতে নিয়ে বাড়তি পানি চেপে বার করি।

• পনির ১0 থেকে ১২ ঘন্টা রেখে দিন; এরপর ১চা চামচ লবন পনিরের গায়ে এবং বাঁশের কঞ্চি দিয়ে ভিতরে ডুকান।

• এই পনির বাইরে রেখে ২২-২৪ দিন, রেফ্রিজেরেটরে ২ মাস এবং ফ্রিজারে ১ বছর রেখে খেতে পারবেন।

টিপস:

• রেনেট ট্যাবলেট -এর নির্দেশনা পড়ু্রুন

• আপনি পরিবর্তে রেনেট ট্যাবলেট টক পানি ব্যবহার করতে পারেন। টক পানি করার জন্য একসঙ্গে মাওয়া এবং দুধ মিশিয়ে ১০-১২ ঘন্টারেখে দিন।

Please, what is mawa? I thought mawa was khoya. How does mixing mawa with milk produce tok pani? How much tok pani to use for making ponir with 2 liters of milk? I am writing from the U.S., and mawa is not something that is found in American supermarkets. Khoya is sold as mawa in Indian stores here. Thank you for replying, and thank you for posting this recipe and the video.

hi. How much mawa and milk is suitable for the tok pani?

Abdus Choudhury

Hi, I tried to make this twice but the milk didn’t set. I used 2.25 litres of pasteurised milk and one tablet of rennet (bought from Australia via eBay to the UK). Second time I used two rennet tablets but still the milk didn’t set.

Does this recipe only work with unpasteurised milk (very difficult to get that in the UK)? Does it require the milk to set in a warm place?

Any help greatly appreciated,

Thanks
Abdus
