Curds are a dairy product obtained by curdling(coagulating) milk with rennet or an edible acidic substance such as lemon juice or vinegar, and then draining off the liquid portion (called whey). Also natural souring by lactic acid bacteria or yeast leads to curdling (sour milk cheese).
The increased acidity causes the milk proteins (casein) to tangle into solid masses, or curds.
