What the fuck is wrong with you people?
This tastes like fucking sour cream mixed with fresh mozzarella!
I just ate a bowl of it plain and had to stop myself from eating the whole tub in one go.

Anyone who isn't fucking insane have any suggestions on how else I should eat this, like what it's good with or how to cook with it?
I'm never going to allow myself to run out of it after today.

who the fuck thinks cottage cheese is disgusting?
either way, it's good plain or with a little salt and pepper
good mixed with chopped pineapple, stirred into eggs, used in pasta dishes (esp. lasagna) and great in casseroles

Cottage cheese is god tier food.
I like it just plain, or maybe drizzled with a little honey.
I've also put it in my omelettes and scrambled eggs before, but honestly, I feel like it's a waste of the delicious creamy flavor to do that. I really just like it plain.
>and had to stop myself from eating the whole tub in one go.
I know this pain, anon. I know it.

Go get some strawberries.
Slice them up and sprinkle a little sugar on them, stir them around (gets a lot of juice out of the strawberries).
Mix with cottage cheese.

>> No.8788848

I buy the small tubs now so it's only 4 servings if I do eat the entire thing.

>>8788834
Do this, let the strawberries sit for an hour or two and they'll make a syrup.

The word you're looking for to describe the strawberries is "macerated". I'm not being a smartass, just passing along information.

No, I'm not wrong. Do your research. Adding sugar and letting them sit to soften and form a syrup is MACERATION.

You are correct in that, but the original poster of the strawberries did not call for allowing them to do it, it takes time.

My favorite way to eat it besides plain is it to chop up an apple and add it to the cottage cheese along with some cinnamon and granola

Never get low fat cottage cheese it's nasty. 4% is where it's at. It taste sooo much better.

Strain it really well, mix in vanilla, cinnamon, and nutmeg, and brown sugar if you want. Then, in a heat tolerant dish, layer the cottage cheese with a fruit like peaches or nectarines and bake for 15-20 minutes @ 420. It's super good. Avoid fruits that render a lot of moisture when heated tho like strawberries or it ends up pretty soupy.

I fucking love cottage cheese.

Here's some shit to add to it that I enjoy, but by itself is just as good

Pineapple. Diced or sliced
Onion. I like a sweet onion or red onion with a little pepper.
Jalapeño. Fresh is much better than coming from a jar/can.
Honey. A light drizzle with a side of toast.
Avocado. Also good with or on top of toast.
Apple and cinnamon.
Tomatoes. Any kind is good.
Spinach. I use cottage cheese on spinach salads instead of a dressing. Something simple like spinach, croutons, mandarin oranges, sunflower seeds, and then just a fuck huge scoop of cottage cheese on top.

One of those fucking tubs is going in me tonight.

>all this fruit, honey, and sugar

i eat it with hot sauce, salt or seasoned salt, or sometimes i'll eat it with tinned fish, tomatoes, cucumber, pepper and vinegar. its flavor is so neutral-sweet, I think it goes better with pungent and savoury flavors. it's really good in green salads and eggs.

You can sub cottage cheese in place of eggs in any recipe and you'll make the food instantly better.

You can't hate cottage cheese.
Because there isn't enough of anything TO hate.
It is just dairy mush absent of any notable flavour.

I have no strong feelings one way or the other.
