  • NO NO NO dont throw away the liquid whey....use it to make bread with.....it adds a great flavour & tenderness to your loaf

  • Ricotta is made from cooking the whey, usually the whey remaining from making mozzarella. Ricotta means to re cook, ie recooking the whey. The resulting cheese has a very fine texture...this recipe is very similar to Indian cottage cheese called paneer, which is made by curdling milk with lemon juice only. Ricotta uses rennet for curdling....anyways, this recipe is well-presented.
