Method
- Put the milk in a saucepan and add the lemon juice and a few pieces of lemon peel.
- Bring to a boil. When it breaks into a boil, the whey will separate and white curds will form.
- Add the sugar, the pinch of salt and the cinnamon sticks.
- Let it continue boiling and stir gently from time to time: the more you stir, the more the curds break down, so it is best not to touch it too much.
- When the sweet is drying out and the syrup has formed, remove it from the heat.
- Remove the cinnamon sticks and lemon peels before serving.
