In order to get the most delicious product, the preparation should follow some rules:

• Curd should buy well-pressed, without excessive serum. Otherwise, during cooking, it will begin to separate the cheese and get the wrong consistency.
• If the cheese is made at home, it is desirable to "survive" as fresh cheese melts well enough.
• To the mass of a smoother, ingredients before cooking, it is desirable to whisk blender.
• If instead of the expected product is obtained melted cheese (ie the melting process does not start), then the mass of ash is not enough. It can be a little added directly to the cooking process. It happens because each cheese its level of acidity, so the amount of soda for one serving of different curd can vary slightly. If after drying the product is still curd, then it may be melted again, adding a little sodium. However, this should be done carefully, since a large amount of soda can greatly spoil the taste of the finished product.
• The egg is usually used only for giving the final product a pleasant yellowish, so it can not put. Butter is used for fat content. Therefore, those who are sitting on a diet can also reject it, or replace it with refined vegetable oil.
• After the finished product is transfused by molds, they should be covered with something to avoid crust.
