Ingredients
- 2 liters fresh raw water buffalo milk
- Wide and shallow copper or steel pot
- Clean cheesecloth or fabric
Method
- Strain the buffalo milk into a wide and shallow pot.
- Heat the milk over medium heat until it reaches a boiling point, being careful not to overflow.
- Reduce the heat to the lowest level once it starts boiling and do not stir so as not to disturb the foam on the surface.
- Simmer the milk gently on low heat like this for about 1-2 hours.
- Turn off the stove, cover the pot with a clean cheesecloth and let it rest at room temperature for 5-6 hours.
- Transfer the rested pot to the refrigerator and chill for at least 12 hours (preferably 24 hours).
- Carefully slice and remove the thick layer of cream formed on top of the chilled milk using a knife.
To make the cream thicker and tastier, you must use fresh raw buffalo milk with a high fat content.

How long can cream be stored in the fridge?
You should consume homemade buffalo cream in an airtight container in the refrigerator within 3-4 days.
