I was making Ina's Turkey Lasagna and decided to make the Homemade Ricotta with it. BEST Lasagna I've EVER made. It was extremely flavorful yet light. Sometime ricotta can have a gritty texture but this one was very smooth and YUMMY! The best part is that it was so easy to make. I made it first and then while it drained made the rest of the lasagna. I will NEVER use store bought ricotta cheese again. I made another batch and will be using it for Giada's Ricotta Cappuccino tonight. I can't wait to try that....

WOW... Simply divine!!! I never knew you could make Ricotta at home! I made this and added a sprinkle of salt, pepper, nutmeg, and chopped fresh parsley and scallions. I toasted some Ciabatta and brush it with EVOO then rubbed it with fresh garlic. I used the Ricotta like a brushetta on the bread and it was so creamy and tasty!!! My Nana Rose would have been proud!! Next time I am going to make this and make homemade Cannolis!!! Thank you Ina!!

This is brilliant! So easy to make, too. I tried it a couple of different ways and actually found that using coffee filters works the best, as it gets the majority of the liquid out the quickest. I made lasagne this past weekend using this ricotta (had to make a double batch and it was the best lasagne we have ever had. This is a little more expensive than the store bought ricotta but the quality was superb. I will be making this again and again.

Just made this and it is fantastic! Used whole milk and 1/2 and 1/2 since I didn't have any heavy cream. I will use it in my lasagna tonight! Ina rocks!!!

So easy. I didn't have white wine vinegar so I used white balsamic instead. It's still made with white wine so I figured it would be okay to substitute. It worked out beautifully. It was the best ricotta I've ever had.

What a fun dish to make! Because it's so good warm, and nobody understands how easy it is to make ricotta, I decided to make this after guests arrive. I did this yesterday. It was fun to watch after adding the wine vinegar and explain the chemistry. EVERYONE loved it over lightly toasted bread drizzled with olive oil... My 2yr old nephew kept licking the ricotta off his toast and asking for more so it's a recipe that is both fun and loved by all ages. Thanks Contessa.
