[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Making paneer,  setting yogurt and making ghee at home.

Organic veggies from Walmart.

Growing my own pumpkin, squash, gourds and chopping and freezing them.

Do not use pre-prepped ingredients or processed foods.  I am making most everything from scratch.   I have also significantly slimmed down and my kids allergies and skin issues have disappeared because of these changes.

I am not doing all of this to save money though.

(and also - eat less and more nutritionally dense foods).

How do you press/shape the paneer?  Is there a presser or mould you recommend?[/quote]

I drain it into  a plain white cotton cloth and gather the cloth with the paneer in a bundle. Squeeze the water out.  Then put it on an upside down flat bottom pot in my sink, and then put another pot  filled with water on top of the cloth bundle and leave it overnight. The extra water gets pressed out from the weight of the water filled pot. The liquid drains into the sink.  The paneer comes out in a thick flat round shape next morning. Cut it into whatever shape you want. If you do not like the shape of the edges, you can cut it off and use that paneer as a filling in paranthas, sandwich  or in bell-peppers after crumbling it and adding spices. [/quote]
