Additions of almonds and fruit is optional and added last. Put the mixture in a cheesecloth lined clay flowerpot, colander or paskha mold. Put a heavy weight on the top to help press out the excess moisture. Put container on wire rack so that the cheese will not sit in the drained liquid. Let drain at least 24 hours.
