Profiles in Rickery: Ricotta

Our newest profile is that of a special dairy product, ricotta.  People think it is cheese, and I did as well, but it is not.  Not technically, at least.  It's really a product made from the byproducts of cheese-making.  The Italians really love ricotta, so if you're making Italians dishes, consider adding some ricotta.  I might.

The internet tells me that it's actually really easy to make:

If you decide to use it, let's say on some pizza, here's how to make sure it doesn't make your crust soggy

  1. We just got a compost bin and I was saddened to learn that dairy products are a big composting no-no, apparently. But if RICotta is not technically a cheese, does that mean it's not technically a dairy product, and ergo not technically a composting no-no? I ask because, if I try to make this myself, the taste is likely to be so putrid that composting could be the most humane means of disposal ;)

    1. Did you watch that video? I think you could make it. Maybe some Jacquemole and a nice ricotta dip for your next party?

  2. I was not expecting this one. Lasagna is all I use ricotta in. Maybe I will put it in something with lots of sour cream and serve it to Paul.

    1. I think I'd mentioned once that you can expect some unexpected posts on Rick Show. But one post I'll go out on a limb and say you won't see will be the one entitled "Sour Cream."
