Product reference and format
The current product format is one 250 g tub and six tubs per case. This small unit helps the kitchen open only what is needed for a service while keeping the remaining tubs easy to identify and rotate in the refrigerator.
Producer and product profile
Ricotta is a dairy product made by reheating whey from cheesemaking. This cow's milk ricotta has a delicate, creamy texture and a mild flavour that carries both sweet and savoury seasonings without dominating them.
Professional uses and portions
Use it for ravioli, cannelloni and cannoli fillings, cheesecakes, tarts, desserts, gnocchi, frittate, pizza and creamy sauces. As a starting point, portion according to the recipe: use only the amount needed for the filling or preparation and return the rest to refrigeration promptly.
Common mistakes to avoid
Do not leave the tub open on the workbench or mix a clean portioning utensil with other ingredients. Avoid overheating delicate ricotta preparations, which can affect their texture. Do not judge storage by appearance alone; follow the date and handling instructions on the tub.
Storage and handling
Keep refrigerated at 0 to 4 °C and use by the date on the tub. Once opened, use within the stated period, normally within one or two days after opening. Close the tub carefully, prevent cross-contamination and keep it in the cold area until use.
