Next, you should form the front legs and head of the future horse from the smooth structure of the warm cheese. After that, put the horse in very salty water, which serves as a preservative. And then you can decorate the cheese horses as you wish. Most often, cheese horses are braided with additional cheese threads, which add beauty to the finished product.
