But this is where we are wrong, the fact that cheese cakes as such exist from ancient Greece in the Roman Empire . How is this possible?

What we know about cream cheese and a way to do it homemade
The famous Philadelphia , cheese cheese, or as they want to say. This is going to be the star today and the base of this cake. It is a cheese that is characterized by having the consistency of a soft paste and not being inside the typical hard peel of any other cheese.
The creamy consistency of this type of cheese falls in love with anyone for almost 160 years throughout the world.
We will always find it of a milky white color, with a slightly salty and creamy characteristic flavor, very discreet, with a very subtle acid touch.
How do we do homemade cream cheese?
This part is only for those who feel creative this afternoon.
- We put ½ liter of milk to the fire and let it heat well without boiling.
- We add 40 ml with hot milk. of lemon juice or vinegar. We cover and let cool.
- The third step is to strain this with a rag and drain as much as possible to take out all the serum. At this point we stayed with ricota or cottage cheese.
- Liquefy this along with a tablespoon of the serum and a little salt. Here we can add a spoonful of yogurt that will give it an acidic touch, but this is optional. Achieved consistency we already have our homemade cream cheese.
In this video Paulina explains this recipe perfectly: homemade cream cheese .
Clarification : To make the cheese cake today you can use any type of spreadable cheese, cream cheese, cottage cheese, mascarpone or ricotta . We have to admit that Mascarpone cheese looks great, but this is to each one.
The last step: a nice presentation and decoration
When serving this cake, our mouths will have water. We can eat it alone (and it is really delicious), or accompany it from some fruit sauce , infallible coverage for this type of preparations. You can also opt for a blueberry , raspberry or other red fruits, chocolate or cookies , to add to this cake that does not have a base.
A tip before starting
It is very important to cool the cake well before unmolding and decorating. Once cold we proceed to carefully separate the walls of the mold with the help of a knife or a fine spatula, so we would be preventing us from breaking when we unmold or open the hoop. At that time it is recommended to put the cake in the refrigerator for a while, but this is already available to each one.
I already tell you that this cake is beautiful in any way and we just have to enjoy it. Chau Chau!
