Keep Curd Fresh for a Week: Expert Tips Revealed!

• Add starter culture to lukewarm milk; too hot kills bacteria, too cold prevents setting.
• Place 2-3 small peeled onions in set curd to absorb extra sourness, especially without a fridge.
• Drain excess water (whey) from curd using a cotton cloth to prevent quick souring.
• Store curd in ceramic or glass containers on the top shelf of the fridge immediately after setting.
• Always use a dry spoon and avoid stirring the entire bowl to maintain freshness.
