In Italian, Ricotta means 'cooked twice'. For cheese, this means a white fresh texture with high level of moisture and a low fat content.
May be consumed either cold or hot ; it is the ideal choice for spreads, dips or to compliment fruits or vegetables. Excellent in baked dishes, stuffed pasta or dessert.
The cheese Ricotta is available under the following brands :
