Airag Cheese Balls
Aaruul
A traditional Mongolian snack made from dried curd of fermented mare's milk (airag). These cheese balls are a unique and tangy treat, often enjoyed as a source of sustenance and calcium, especially during long journeys or in nomadic settings.
🧂 Składniki
- 1 liter Airag (fermented mare's milk)
- 1 piece Cheesecloth or fine-mesh sieve
- 1/2 tsp Salt(optional, to taste)
👨🍳 Instrukcje
- 1
Gently heat the airag in a large pot over low heat. Do not boil. The goal is to encourage the solids to separate from the liquid.

Once the curds have formed and separated from the whey, carefully ladle the mixture into a cheesecloth-lined colander or fine-mesh sieve set over a bowl.
- 3
Allow the whey to drain for at least 30 minutes, or until the curds are relatively dry. You can gently press the curds to extract more liquid.

Transfer the drained curds to a clean bowl. If desired, mix in salt.
💡 Wskazówki profesjonalistów: The curds should be crumbly at this stage. - 5
Roll small portions of the curd mixture into bite-sized balls. The moisture content will determine how well they hold their shape.

Place the cheese balls on a clean plate or tray lined with parchment paper. Dry them in a warm, dry place, or in a very low oven (around 50°C/120°F) with the door slightly ajar, until they are firm and hard.
💡 Wskazówki profesjonalistów: The drying time will vary depending on humidity and desired hardness. They should be hard enough to store for extended periods.
