What it is
This cow's milk ricotta is a fresh cheese in two thermosalted trays of 1.5 kg each. Its soft, creamy character suits professional savoury cooking, pastry and dessert preparation.
Product and format
The current reference is a 2 x 1.5 kg tray format, giving the kitchen two separate units and 3 kg in total. The trays support organised mise en place and allow the team to open only the quantity needed.
Organoleptic profile
Ricotta has a mild dairy aroma, a soft creamy texture and a delicate, slightly sweet flavour. It works as a discreet base that takes on herbs, spices, fruit and chocolate without losing its fresh identity.
Professional uses and quantities
Use about 80 to 120 g per filling or plated portion as a starting point and adjust to the recipe. The ricotta is suitable for ravioli and other fillings, lasagne, creams, cheesecakes, cannoli-style desserts and simple spreads.
Errors to avoid
Do not leave the ricotta uncovered or add liquid without checking the recipe balance. Avoid handling it with unclean utensils, overworking the creamy texture and opening both trays when one is sufficient.
Storage and handling
Keep refrigerated according to the product label and protect the trays from temperature changes. Use a clean utensil, close an opened tray promptly and return it to refrigeration after preparation or service.
