Directions

You'll need 1 pint (600ml) of fresh cream, and 1/2 teaspoon of tartaric acid (available from pharmacies and some grocers).

Pour the cream into the top of a double boiler and place over simmering water.

When the cream is warm, add the tartaric acid, and stir until cream reaches a temperature of 180 degrees (75-80 Celsius). Use a candy thermometer.

Remove from heat and allow to cool, stirring occasionally.

Pour the mixture into a bowl lined with thick cheesecloth or a doubled-over tea towel, and leave in a cool place for at least 12 hours, preferably 24.

Consume within 48 hours.

I love this kind of recipe. Although, I doubt I would go to the trouble of making mascarpone regularly, it is something I would probably try once. Thanks once again, for posting something really unusual for the home cook!

BTW one of the things I like about mascarpone, besides the creaminess, is that it has a really nice, light sweetness.
