Revel in all that ricotta has to offer! Magdalena O Neal – April 9, 2021
Ricotta is one of those cheeses that people donât necessarily just pick up and buy at the store to keep in the fridge the way one might parmesan or a good sharp cheddar. Weâre here to show you why ricotta should definitely make its way to the top of your list of grocery staples. Itâs super versatile and can be used as a spread for toast, a creamy and rich addition to pasta, or as a dairy base for baking.
Ricotta is traditionally made with the leftover wheys created from making other types of cheese, though it can also be made at home with just whole milk and some lemon juice. I remember the first time I made cheat ricotta with a gallon of milk and a squeeze of lemon and watched the curds separate. It was so exciting to see it come together into a soft block wrapped in cheesecloth.
