How to make cream cheese from kefir: the easiest way

Cream cheese is a versatile ingredient that can be combined in many dishes: rolls, appetizers, and even pancakes. This product is extremely easy to make at home from just one ingredient – kefir. As a result, it will be very difficult to distinguish the finished homemade cream cheese from the purchased one.
