Ricotta, 250g

This product is currently sold out.
Ricotta (literally re-cooked) is a fresh unripened cheese obtained from the serum (whey) that comes out after the coagulation process, combined with a small amount of milk. Its name (from Latin "recoctus") refers to its preparation process, which entails the whey being re-cooked a second time. For a long time, whey was thought to be a residue of the milk. Today it is defined as the noble protein of milk, with the highest nutritional value and lowest content of fat.
Ricotta has a soft and smooth texture and a very delicate flavour.
Italians enjoy this product with pasta, with spinach in a pie or meatballs or eaten straight off of a spoon with a drop of golden honey! Alternatively, why not try to recreate the Mortadella, Ricotta and Basil Ciabatta that we used to make in our KX deli?
