Ricotta cheese

[Halex]

I make ricotta cheese from Helens blog, love it

I find that using her recipe I really dont get very much, maybe around 350g, I was wondering if I was doing something wrong or is this the amount everyone else gets.  It just doest seem a lot from 1500g of milk plus the cream & vinegar.

Cant stand bought ricotta now.

That's about right Hally, you're not doing anything wrong.

Hally, I have a mad Millie cheese kit and I get approx 450g from 2lt of milk. Sounds like you are doing everything right to me. I love homemade ricotta too.

I love Helene 's ricotta. The only problem is if I make it I eat it. I have a couple of Mad Millie cheese kits to play with that I got for my birthday.

When she says 'light cream' in her recipe.....what do you use? Is it simply a lite cream (is that 10% fat?)

I saw those mad Millie cheese kits at the Good Food and wine show and thought they looked interesting.

I still haven't tried mine yet. I can't decide what to make. I do ricotta from Helene's site and haloumi from recipe community. I think it might be feta. I'll tell you how it goes.
