Making and Using Ricotta: From Appetizer to Dessert


Friday, November 5, 6:30 pm

If you missed the opportunity in past years to learn how to make fresh ricotta at home, and to taste ricotta warm, here is your chance once again. Delicious alone, ricotta also is a great base for a variety of fillings. We will use ricotta to make cannelloni the Calabrian way, with fresh pasta dough made without egg, as well as to stuff egglant slices and zucchini. We will finish with one of my favorite ice creams made with fresh ricotta and flavored with strega, the famous Italian liqueur.

Be warned: you may not be able to eat store bought ricotta again!
