WTF can I do with cottage cheese...

[Teuch]

...other than eat it whilst gagging and feeling virtous??!!

And I like polenta as well (to ref. another thread)

lol I love the reactions on this thread

I opened it up expecting loads of viruous recipes, I was going to post bin the vile stuff then saw loads of other mumsnetters have said the same thing.

Honestly, it's lke edible cellulite, looks hideous, tastes the same.

NO redeeming features

No, No, No

It looks like thrush

It desn't taste of anything.

'Lush' is a ripe pear and roquefort

'Lush' is a perfectly ripe strawberry

'Lush' is the first asparagus of the season.

Cottage cheese and lush.....does not compute captain!

If someone cut my thighs open and scooped all the cellulite out (nice job if you can get it) it would (in my random imaginings) look like cottage cheese

Agree with all your lushes MB. Would just include FFCC as well!

OK. I am going to confess here. I make cottage cheese sandwiches most days for DH.

I STILL HATE THE BLAND SMELLY UGLY STUFF WITH RUNNY BITS AND LUMPY BITS AND THAT RUNNY OOZY LIQUID THAT FROTHS AROUND THE LUMPS OF CONGEALED PROTEIN.

Give me real cheese, not embryo cheese.

catinthehat - do you hate your poor dh?

To be serious, Teuch, I have a fantastic recipe for a cheese terrine, which uses cottage cheese. It's a Delia recipe.

Brief summary if you're interested:

blend cottage cheese with mayonnaise
finely dice a selection of cheese - sage derby, double gloucester with chives are two of the three that I remember
Mix the diced cheese with the cottage cheese/mayo and add some gelatine dissolved in hot water.
season with pepper and, I think, dill and then pour into a terrine and chill

If you want the recipe I'll type it out for you!

Thanks for 'It looks like Thrush' Martianbishop I will never be able to eat it again!

Well it does

don't shoot the messenger!

GetOrf -
I love the guy dearly or I wouldn't make the horrible things.
Imagine my colleagues quaking under their desks on the 2 occasions I have mistakenly brought his foul sandwiches into work rather than my normal person sandwiches.
They are adults but they were scared believe me.

lolol cat

They were expecting you to bring in tofu and alfalfa sprouts next and share it with them

Do they still back away blinking feverishly?

Put it this way, I think DH's colleagues were pretty impressed by the bleeding chunks of raw meat he brought in by mistake

In lasagne, in place of ricotta
