Ricotta, literally translating to 're-cooked' in Italian, is made from the water left over from mozzarella production where only 100% Italian Friesian cow's milk, from suppliers in the "milk district" where Parmigiano Reggiano and Grana Padano were born is used, creating an incredibly rich ricotta with a much more intense flavour.

Common Uses of Ricotta
Ricotta is a delicious and versatile cheese that can be used in a variety of dishes. It’s commonly used in savoury dishes such as lasagne, stuffed shells, and other Italian dishes, but it can also be used in sweet recipes like cheesecake and cannoli.

Brand
Caseificio Valcolatte - The Caseificio (Dairy) Valcolatte brand represents a culmination of dedicated study and refinement. It carries the rich legacy and values of a company with roots dating back to 1914. The company’s origins trace to Stagno Lombardo, Cremona, when Enzo Panizzi secured a dairy contract before departing for World War I, leaving his grandmother Cesira in charge. Upon his return, he found the dairy thriving in Monticelli d’Ongina with a well-stocked warehouse. The Panizzi family, including six children, continued the cheese-making tradition. In 1960, Ciro Panizzi, Enzo’s father, relocated production to Montanaro. With the help of Enzo and Liliana, the company transitioned from Panizzi to Valcolatte, focusing on fresh cheese production. Giuseppe Villa, Liliana’s father and a successful entrepreneur provided crucial support to these burgeoning dairy entrepreneurs.

creamy
I bought this on a flash sale and decided to make white pizzas. This was perfectly creamy, but not runny at all. Baked nicely and had good flavour.

The real thing
At last a ricotta that's really tasty. Worth spending a little extra compared to the other bland-tasting offerings.
