We’re very grateful to Denise Woodward of the wonderful food blog, Chez Us<\/a>, for sharing this recipe with us during Diabetes Awareness Month.\u00a0 We have made this recipe several times (I had to try it the day I saw it) and it is fantastic.\u00a0 It’s about as simple as cooking gets, and it’s the most affordable way to get Ricotta.\u00a0 Thank you so much, Denise! – Jessica Apple<\/em><\/p>\n

Ricotta is one of the easiest cheeses to make. \u00a0One of the best reasons to make your own ricotta is having control over what goes into the recipe. \u00a0Always start with the freshest whole milk you can find, preferably organic. \u00a0You can use any type of lemon, each one will give a slightly different flavor. \u00a0For instance, Meyer Lemon will give more of a floral undertone, which is really lovely with a plate of fresh tomatoes. You can also control the flavor of your ricotta by using different flavored salts, don’t be afraid to go beyond kosher salt. \u00a0Smoked salt adds a wonderful dimension as does a slightly sweet pecan salt. \u00a0Have fun with this recipe.<\/p>\n
