Hung cheese is made by hanging fresh cheese curds in a muslin bag and allowing them to drain for several hours until they are firm. Unfortunately as it is likely to have a lower fat content than cream cheese (cream cheese usually has a fat content of 33%) it may not be ideal to make some baked cheesecakes. It is also likely to have a slightly more sour flavour than cream cheese. However, as we believe it may be similar to UK curd cheese (US farmer cheese) it should be suitable for cheesecake recipes made with curd cheese - such as Nigella's Old-Fashioned Cheesecake in Kitchen (p173). Most of the curd cheesecake recipes are baked and will come from Eastern Europe so you should be able to find a further selection on-line.
You should also be able to use the hung cheese in cheesecakes that do not require baking, particularly ones that are set with gelatine. As the hung cheese will have a more sour flavour than cream cheese you may need to add a little extra sugar to the filling so taste it before spooning it over the cheesecake base.
Hung cheese should be fine as a substitute for cream cheese in dips and spreads.
Some popular recipes that use sour curd as a key ingredient include lemon cheesecake, buttermilk pancakes, and tzatziki sauce.

Yes, you can use milk in cheesecake, but it's typically not the primary ingredient. Most cheesecake recipes rely on cream cheese, sugar, and eggs as the main components, with milk sometimes added to achieve a smoother texture or to adjust the consistency of the batter. Using milk can help make the cheesecake lighter, but be careful not to add too much, as it can affect the firmness.

The best pan to use for cooking cheesecake is the classic springform pan. These pans transfer heat well and are easily removed without damaging the cheesecake.
