Making and Using Ricotta
From Appetizer to Dessert


    In this class you will learn how to
    make homemade fresh ricotta. We
    will taste the ricotta warm as it is
    made.  It is to die for!  We will use
    the ricotta to make ravioli as they
    do in my town of Verbicaro --
    oversized, with an eggless dough.
    The frittata, another dish from my
    town, is made with ricotta.  It is cut
    into pieces and then simmered in a
    tomato sauce.  We will end the
    meal with a traditional dessert
    made in Southern Italy during the
    month of March for St. Joseph day
    (March 19th): cream puffs filled
    with fresh ricotta cream.
