Your lovely accent takes me right back to my childhood. Growing up in an Italian neighborhood in Brooklyn, NY in the 1950s was a rich experience. Thank you so much for this recipe.
I grew up around Italian immigrants in Brooklyn NY too. My parents italian friend had a gorgeous garden that he would give vegetable and fruits to us. sometimes. I loved hearing him speak.
So happy I’ve found this lovely man, brings back memories of my beloved Uncle John,he was Sicilian came to America as a young man owned a shoe shop made shoes and repaired also ,he lived in Harrisburg,Pa. Blessings from Pennsylvania 🙏🙏🙏🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
You are so sweet and charming explaining your way of working in the kitchen. Beautiful. Patient, slow and safe. An art from the roof of age. It’s an honor to learn from you.
LOVED THIS! I made homemade Ricotta many years ago with a recipe I had. This is SO much better! Tonight, we had Fettucine with YOUR homemade Ricotta. It turned out great! Thank you.
Excellent. I am in South America and its very expensive to find good cheese here as its all imported. What they make has zero flavor whatsoever. Also nice to see "bring to a slight boil, just to when you see bubbles" rather than "use your 5,000 dollar thermometer to get it within .0013 degrees of X temperature. Thank you. 3 years late, but better late than never. I think I will try this with some herbs or maybe garlic.
I tried this recipe and made it with care and love, just as it is demonstrated in the video. I am hooked! This ricotta is superior to anything I buy at the store - even the small batch premium (and expensive!) brands! Thank you for sharing your lovely ricotta recipe!
If you tap on the title it will open up and there is a recipe written to the right if your on an iPad, different devices open up differently. Good luck.
"Little spoon and turn" you are So cute, Pasquale 😊 On a serious note, Invaluable Information 🙌 I thank you from the bottom of my heart. Salute 🍷e Cin Cin! 🤗
Wow, I did not know you could make Ricotta at home. It's so expensive in the stores even for a small container. Thank you Pasquale. Nothing like learning authentic Italian recipes from a true Italian! Great job, Liked and Subscribed!
@@djo-dji6018 Yes and no. Ricotta means recooked and came about by recooking milk whey (typically after letting it ferment for a night to increase acidity), but the method is from traditional Italian cheese making which was adding acidity to whole milk to produce the soft curds like in the video. There are only two major difference: one is that they didn't need to add acid to the hard curd cheese's leftover whey, and two the original soft curd cheese (like this video) has a higher fat content.
Hello Pasquale ,I really enjoy watching you cook and most of the recipes you do, reminds how my mother and nonna did , and now I do some of the recipes .We are from Bari Vecchio .Thank You .😊
Whoaaaaa! I love the simplicity of your instruction video. Im subscribing to your account❤😊 Im planning to make it tomorrow following your recipe. Thank you so much for that sincere explaination. I will make some on my nephew's birthday as he invites his friends to have a meal on that day. I will let those teens to try it. Im sure they will love it🥰🤩
I've never had ricotta before. After watching this video I will definitely try making it. Thank you for the lovely video, and enjoyed listening to your accent.
I was searching for the recipe but many people said its same as paneer (Indian cottage cheese) but its not, as I saw ricotta in italty has diffrent taste and texture.. So now I got perfect recipe for ricotta... Thank you ❤
you're the best !!!!! best recipe. I also believe making this slowly makes it great, I haven't seen anyone else talk about this. Everyone just dumps the ricotta into the sieve , Thank you :)
It looks delicious! I’m making an Italian cheesecake, and I needed a homemade ricotta. This is perfect! ❤❤(Store bought ricotta is too grainy for a good cheesecake!)
Pasquale, your accent is just like my Great Grandmothers. She was a cook! I visited family in Sicily years ago. I helped them make ricotta with fresh sheep’s milk. Ahh, heaven! It is time I teach the grandchildren.
Will try this with some plant based milk as I have a family history of cancer and need to stay away from all the estrogen in dairy. Thanks for posting.
Chef, thank you for explaining this and showing how it's done so clearly. If the ricotta is kept soft like you have it in the video, how much in cups does that turn out to be? Thank you! I just found your channel and have to see your other videos now : )
Semplicemente meraviglioso! I am so happy that I came across your channel. Hard to find authentic, great tasting Ricotta here in the USA. I can not stand the ones they sell in the stores here and very expensive at our local Italian supermarket. I can't wait to try this recipe.
Grazie, Pasquale!! Ci devo provare. Noi la ricotta a casa l'abbiamo sempre comprata dal 'pecoraro'. Non sapevo si potesse fare con aceto e limone. Thanks a bunch!!
This soft ricotta came out so good. One question though. What do you need to do if you want to make it firmer to use in lasagna recipe for example? I didn't catch the process.
Looks easy enough, but I need your pretty yellow kettle :o) -- you mention you can use the liquid that has drained for something else. Can you give an example of how you would use it? Thank you.
That yellow liquid called as Whey, it's the by product that you extract most of the fats and protein from this liquid. The taste was sour+ hint of milky, sweet taste. Many things you could do: -Pop into smoothies. -Water your plants. -Feed to your Doggo or Meowy. -Bake breads, soups, fresh pasta. -Or you may drink it right away.
That liquid is actually used to make ricotta in the original Italian recipe. "Ricotta" means literally "re-cooked". It is made after the preparation of cheese with the whey by adding more milk, rennet and re-cooking everything. This is not the original ricotta making process. What he made is actually cheese (called "primo sale" in the original cooking method).
It looks amazing, i also want to ask in Italy why do they not call the first pass ricotta? They say you have to use the liquid and reboil the whey and this is called ricotta. Can you explain the difference?
what he made is closer to a mascarpone. when making a rennet cheese, the clear liquid drained (the whey) can be reused, if you add acid and cook it at a higher temperature you bring out more curds of cheese from the clear liquid, using these you make the true ricotta.
After making cheese or quark, I make Italian ricotta from the remaining whey by boiling and filtering. It is a low-fat whey cream cheese. In this way, you have made two products from the milk at the same time. From 10 liters of milk you get 1 kg of cheese and about 400 grams of ricotta. This recipe in the video looks more like Indian paneer to me.
I knew I liked this guym npw that I get a closer look at his cooking tool holder on the counter. It's Star Fleet so yep, I like him and he's got good recipes.
Mr. Sciarappa, i learned originally from my grandfather-in-law Sam Laloggia. Here it is 40 years later and I am at a loss. It wont curd. I even tried rennet, all that did was seperate it, but no curds. I can make cheese without the cream and it works great, but its not that rich flavor Grandpa Sam made. I heard that ultra pasteurization may be the issue. I cant find heavy cream without the ultra pasteurization down here in Houston. can you tell me how to get around this issue. Thank you
Your lovely accent takes me right back to my childhood. Growing up in an Italian neighborhood in Brooklyn, NY in the 1950s was a rich experience. Thank you so much for this recipe.
I grew up around Italian immigrants in Brooklyn NY too. My parents italian friend had a gorgeous garden that he would give vegetable and fruits to us. sometimes. I loved hearing him speak.
And hearing his accent I realise how I never got to live in such a neighbourhood

I'm eating Lasagna with my homemade ricotta. Absolutely most satisfying ricotta I ever had. Thank you for your energy! I'm my own ricotta hero now. 😊
Chef Pasquale takes me back to my childhood helping my grandmother "Nonna Rosa" in Boston cooking the family's Sunday feasts...
It's like hanging out with the Italian Grand dad I never had. Fun time, Thank you so much. Mangiare
I made it. It's great used it in a greek sponokopia recipe
You’re the first person to pop up in my mind when I wondered how to make ricotta! Bravo!! I can’t wait to try it!👏🏼
I have been making this every week since I watched this vid. My whole family loves you Pasquale. Cin cin!
LOVED THIS! I made homemade Ricotta many years ago with a recipe I had. This is SO much better! Tonight, we had Fettucine with YOUR homemade Ricotta. It turned out great! Thank you.

Pasquale if I want to use this to make a ricotta pie this easter, would you recommend a harder or softer ricotta?
Wow, I did not know you could make Ricotta at home. It's so expensive in the stores even for a small container. Thank you Pasquale. Nothing like learning authentic Italian recipes from a true Italian! Great job, Liked and Subscribed!
That's not actual ricotta, though.
