Ever since my achievement of making goat cheese at home, I've been looking for an opportunity to try my hand at another variety. Although I've never thought a whole lot about ricotta other than when I'm making lasagna, I saw a dollop on a recipe with grilled vegetables the other day that looked delicious. I decided to try my luck with another homemade cheese.
Holy Moly. This creamy creation seriously tastes almost as good as a fine quality burrata {my all-time favorite queso}. I suppose the addition of cream can make any dish over the top. This cheese was no exception. Use high quality, organic ingredients to achieve the best flavor.
The first day we enjoyed this with grilled squash, the next with oven roasted cherry tomatoes. Both were sensational, especially served over grilled artisan bread lightly scented with a fresh clove of garlic.
