Make your own whey protein at home

Protein supplements have become the need of the hour today. But, the prices of supplements are away to high. Not everyone can afford to invest in them. So, does that mean that they need to compromise on their proteins?

NO!

Here is how you can make whey protein at home and get your daily dose of protein!

Untitled

  • Choose any milk product like yoghurt/curd, paneer (cottage cheese) or buttermilk.
  • The curd is the easiest option available at home but you can choose any products mentioned above.
  • Take a bowl and put a strainer on the top of it. (Strainer can be big or small)
  • Take a small muslin cloth and place it over the strainer.
  • Put 250 grammes of curd on the strainer and cover it with a plastic wrap. Keep it in the refrigerator overnight for 6-8 hours.
  • Remove the bowl which was kept overnight. The solid part which is there on the top of the strainer is called as curd cheese and the liquid which will be collected in the bowlis called as home whey protein.

The shelf life of homemade whey protein: –

  • If you refrigerate homemade whey protein, it can last up to 6 months.
  • It can be stored in airtight bottles or glass jars.
  • It is ideal to make a whey protein batch for a month and then prepare another fresh stock.

Nothing goes waste! You can use the curd cheese as well… 

  • Curd cheese can be mostly commonly used as a cheese dip or cheese spread. You can add milk according to your requirements. If you want to make a dense dip then milk should be less and vice versa.
  • This curd cheese which is obtained has healthy fats which are required by the body.
  • Apart from these dips, you can use curd cheese in baking cakes as well.
