The Technique

Ricotta

Ricotta cheese is a soft cheese that may be used in sweet & savory recipe applications. The proteins in milk coagulate when an acid is introduced producing the grainy texture. Ricotta may be made from a variety of sources ranging from cows, sheep or even Italian water buffalo milk. Season it just so & use it to fill an irresistible batch of handcrafted Walnut-Browned Butter Two Cheese Ravioli or serve it in delicious appetizers including Lemon-Ricotta Artichoke Dip & Sweet Pea Ricotta Spread when southern socials are in order. Learn how to prepare it from scratch.

How To Make Ricotta Cheese

Preparing ricotta cheese from scratch may be accomplished relatively quickly. It’s similar to making farmers cheese & has a shelf life of about 7 days. Regular pasteurized, homogenized milk or raw milk may be used.

Combine 1 quart whole milk & 1/2 teaspoon salt in a 3 1/2-quart saucepan over Medium-Low heat to 180 degrees, stirring the bottom of the pot on occasion, for 10 to 12 minutes. Turn off the heat. Slowly add 2 tablespoons of lemon juice, about 1/4 teaspoon at a time. Gently stir the mixture with a rubber spatula as the curds begin to form. Let stand 20 minutes, stirring occasionally. Place a fine wire mesh sieve over a tall bowl. Line the sieve with the cheesecloth in an X shape. Pour the cheese curds into the cloth. Let stand 20 minutes. Use as directed in specific recipe applications.
