FRESH BERRIES & SWEET RICOTTA
Steps:
- Place the Homemade Ricotta in a medium bowl and stir in the sugar, honey, and vanilla. Set aside at room temperature for up to 2 hours. In another bowl, combine the strawberries, raspberries, and blueberries.
- When ready to serve, divide the berries among 6 bowls. With an ice cream scoop, place a large dollop of the ricotta in each bowl and drizzle with lots of the Fresh Raspberry Sauce. Sprinkle with the lemon zest and serve.
- Set a fine-mesh sieve over a deep bowl. Dampen 2 pieces of cheesecloth with water and line the sieve with a double layer of the cheesecloth.
- Pour the milk and cream into a medium stainless-steel or enameled pot, such as Le Creuset, and stir in the salt. Bring to a full rolling boil over medium heat, stirring occasionally. Turn off the heat and pour in the vinegar. Allow the mixture to stand for one minute, until it curdles. It will separate into thick parts (the curds) and milky parts (the whey).
- Pour the mixture into the cheesecloth-lined sieve and allow it to drain into the bowl at room temperature for 20 minutes (for soft ricotta) to 25 minutes (for firmer ricotta), occasionally discarding the liquid that collects in the bowl. Transfer the ricotta to a bowl, discarding the cheesecloth and any remaining liquid. Use immediately or cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate.
- The ricotta will keep, refrigerated, for 4 to 5 days.
- Place the raspberries, sugar, and 1/4 cup water in a small saucepan over medium heat. Bring to a boil, lower the heat, and simmer for 4 minutes. Pour the cooked raspberries, the jam, and the framboise into the bowl of a food processor fitted with the steel blade and process until smooth. Pour into a container and chill. The sauce can be refrigerated for up to one week.
Tips:
- To ensure a smooth and lump-free ricotta topping, make sure to use a fine-mesh sieve to strain the ricotta cheese before mixing it with the other ingredients.
- For a richer flavor, use whole milk ricotta cheese. If you prefer a lighter topping, you can use part-skim or non-fat ricotta cheese.
- Feel free to adjust the amount of powdered sugar to your preferred sweetness level. Start with 1/4 cup and add more as desired.
- For a citrusy twist, add a tablespoon of lemon zest or orange zest to the topping.
- If you want a crunchier topping, add a tablespoon of chopped nuts, such as pistachios, almonds, or walnuts.
- Use the ricotta topping immediately after making it, or store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
Conclusion:
A sweet ricotta topping is a versatile and delicious addition to a variety of desserts. Whether you're serving it on pancakes, waffles, French toast, or fruit, this topping is sure to please everyone at the table.
