Ricotta is a soft, creamy, and mildly sweet Italian cheese, traditionally made from whey leftover from the production of other cheeses. Its name comes from the Italian word “ricotta”, meaning “recooked,” referring to the process by which it’s made. This cheese is incredibly versatile, perfect for both savory and sweet dishes. It can be used in pasta fillings like lasagna or ravioli, as a topping for pizzas, or as a creamy addition to desserts like cannoli and cheesecake. Ricotta’s smooth texture and subtle flavor make it an essential ingredient in Italian cuisine and a favorite in a wide range of recipes.
