Ricotta Nutrition facts
Ricotta
Ricotta, a fresh, soft, non-aged Italian cheese is made from 're-cooking' the whey leftover when full-fat cheeses are made. Further heating of this whey allows all the protein solids like alpha and beta lactalbumins, globulins, lactoferrin, etc, to coagulate and clump together as solid granules into delicious cheese mass.
It is naturally low in fat and salt and has a delicate, smooth flavor that works well in confectionaries.
