做法
- 在厚底锅中把牛奶加热到35°C。加凝乳酶(或柠檬汁)。轻搅后静置60分钟让凝乳成型。
- 把凝乳切成1厘米丁。静置10分钟。
- 缓慢加热到38°C,轻搅——凝乳会变紧实。透过纱布滤出,乳清留作他用。
- 把凝乳压30分钟挤出更多乳清。拌入盐(及糖,如用)。
- 把凝乳塑成小形——蒙古aaruul有几十种形:小球、扁长方、圆把、麻花。形状因地区传统而异。
- 放在晾架上直晒5到7天,每天翻面一次(列出的烹调时间仅为活动准备)。aaruul会大幅变硬。装入布袋常温存放;可保数月。

文化背景
蒙古干乳酪是蒙古乳酪保存传统——每户牧民家庭都在夏季奶量丰富时做aaruul给冬天吃。这道菜与旅行储存相关;aaruul装得进马鞍包,保存数月,提供蛋白与钙。各地区做不同形状:中央喀尔喀蒙古做圆形;西部卫拉特蒙古做扁厚长方;游牧牧民手捏成圆把。蒙古孩子从小吮aaruul成长;这道菜带蒙古童年怀旧味。
