For a smoother texture, ensure the cream cheese is fully softened before mixing. Adjust the ratio of sour cream to cream cheese to suit your taste preferences. More sour cream will result in a tangier kajmak. Consider adding a pinch of sea salt to enhance the flavors.

Follow The Directions
01
StepBegin by pressing the feta cheese through a fine-mesh sieve or cheesecloth to remove excess liquid. This step is crucial for achieving the right consistency. (5 minutes)
02
StepIn a mixing bowl, combine the drained feta cheese, sour cream, and softened cream cheese. (2 minutes)
03
StepUsing an electric mixer, beat the mixture on medium speed until smooth, creamy, and well combined. Be careful not to overmix. (3-5 minutes)
04
StepTransfer the kajmak to an airtight container. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld and deepen. For an even more intense flavor, chill for several hours or overnight. (30+ minutes)
05
StepBefore serving, allow the kajmak to come to room temperature for about 15-20 minutes to enhance its creamy texture. (15-20 minutes)
