Cook's Notes:
You can find tartaric acid online or in specialty shops, such as those specializing in confectionery or home-brewing.
If you don't see curds forming in step 1, add a tiny pinch more of tartaric acid and stir for another 5 minutes. Don't add too much tartaric acid at once, or your cheese will become grainy.
