Galbani Ricotta

Originating from central and southern Italy, ricotta is a fresh dairy product obtained from cow's milk whey and is characterized by a creamy texture. Its name comes from the heat treatment of the whey. After the first boiling carried out to produce the cheese, a second boiling takes place, so the whey is re-boiled (ri-cotta in Italian).
Galbani Ricotta evokes a world of simplicity, freshness, authenticity and tradition.

Serving suggestions

The creamy texture and intense taste of fresh milk make ricotta a very versatile ingredient, suitable for sweet or savory recipes, hot or cold. It is easy to cook and plays an essential role in the preparation of many typical Italian specialties, such as fresh pasta (ravioli, tortellini - often with spinach), savory pies (the Pasti tart specific to the Liguria region) and cannelloni. It is also just as appreciated if consumed as is or spread on bread, as it is considered a complete, light and natural food.

Storage conditions

Store at a temperature between +4°C and +8°C.
