How Ricotta Cheese is Made in Sicily. It is so interesting!

Ricotta is a soft creamy cheese that can be eaten in very different ways. It comes from the liquid whey when the milk is curdled. The word ricotta means “recooked“ in Italian, because the whey is heated again to separate the curds from the liquid. Ricotta cheese is widely used in sweet and savory dishes, such as lasagna, cannoli, cheesecake, and pancakes. Ricotta is low in fat and high in protein, calcium, and phosphorus, making it a nutritious and delicious ingredient. Ricotta is easy to make at home with just milk and lemon juice. You can customize it with herbs, spices, or honey. Watch our video: Easy to make Italian RICOTTA cheese. Just 2 ingredients. My name is Marta. I was born in Georgia.
