    Another video about making Ricotta cheese which is so wrong & misleading. To be precise, ricotta cheese is not a cheese, but a cheese by-product or dairy product, because of the process by which it is made. It is, however, dealt with as a cheese. This is not ricotta, it's cottage or farm cheese, ricotta is made from the whey leftover from making cheese. The word Ricotta (literally meaning "recooked") from Latin.

    In my country, Cyprus, we eat it as dessert. A small quantity in a bowl, sprinkle with caster sugar and cinnamon. The same mixture we do sweet ravioli like pastries, baked or fried and sprinkle with icing sugar or runny honey. Highly recommend

    I understand this process to make Farmers cheese… also not ricotta. Use more vinegar, 1/2 cup per gallon, to get more curling, need to add acid at 180F for optimal protein unfolding and then curdling with acid. The runoff liquid should be almost clear, not milky so you know you have clumped up all the protein. I make this at home for pierogi filling or cheese cake.

    I don't use the cream – don't find it adds much (except unnecessary expense). And the whey is precious stuff. I use it in bread making instead of water. Makes for yummo loaves.
