I would say one of

For me, mushrooms and grilled onions turn it into a different dish, a kind of creamy pasta. Not bad, but you could probably skip the work of making the bechamel and melted cheese sauce.

The first step to making any cheese is innoculating the cheese with either thermophilic or mesophilic bacteria retard, then you use rennet an enzyme found in a calve's stomach for the first month of it's life to coagulate the curd. At no point do you curdle the milk, if you are getting the milk hot enough to curdlr it you fucked up the cheese. You don't know jack shit about the things you are talking about, stop being an ignorant faggot.
