Howdy doody,
Spanner here using the SWMBO login.
Bwaaa hahahaha! :D
Ok ... nuff with the fun and frivolities.
Firstly I would like to say a big hello to all the Ilui survivours. Hope you are faring well.
Secondly I have been 'asked' to find a ricotta recipie on this here forum.
I have done a search but can not seem to find what it I ahve been tasked to find.
Can anyone tell me so I can appease SWMBO and show her my efforts in searching for a ricotta recipe.
Cheers all.

Hi Spanner, nice to hear from you again. You will have to be more specific - sweet or savoury?
-
I think Spanner means a recipe for making ricotta cheese JD. ;)
I'm not sure the TMX would get the milk to a high enough temperature though to make it... *think*
As per here:http://www.essortment.com/all/cheesemakingre_remb.htm (http://www.essortment.com/all/cheesemakingre_remb.htm) ???
-
yeah thats right .... I want to MAKE ricotta cheese.
Apprently you can.
I will have to search further and deeper than I have ever gone beofre .... into the deep dark recesses of my email in box as I think it might be there somewhere but not sure where.
If I find it I will endevour to share with you all .
Cheers,
Spanner.

Hi, I think Andi may have posted instructions for ricotta cheese. It was amongst some other info. on cheese making. I may have printed it off. I'll check and get back to you.
-
It's not quite ricotta, but it may point you in the right direction.

Hi Spanner,
I make ricotta cheese from whey, what is left from soft cheese/paneer/kind of mozzarella (used fresh milk and lemon juice)
Just warm the whey to 50 °C and pour through a muslin:

Quirky cooking sent me an email a LOOOOOOONg time ago apprently as I found this in my email inbox.
D'oh!!!
RICOTTA
500G FULL CREAM MUNGALI MILK (or raw milk)
1 TSP SALT
1 TBS LEMON JUICE (May require a little more if not separating)
Rinse Thermomix with water to stop milk from catching on the bottom.
Put Milk and Salt into Thermomix.
Mix on Slow Speed for 5 Min on 100 degrees.
Then add lemon while on Slow Speed for 1 Minute
Let sit for 1 minute (Should start separating)
Stir on slow speed for 30sec
Pour into a colander lined with Cheesecloth or a Tea-Towel
We have obviously not yet used this recipie but I am sure we will in the not too distant future.

Tebasile that looks interesting. I keep wanting to make some paneer so will try that with the whey. Thanks.
-
Looks good Tebasile - good use of the whey.
-
You're welcome Cookie :). Ricotta is the italian word for recooked. The whey should be fresh, not longer than an hour old, otherwise it won't work.
Looks good Tebasile - good use of the whey.
And so cheap Thermomixer ;)
-
Also look at Paneer,yogurt cheese, mascarponi here and on other TMX bloggs. Easy asand delicious.

True Gerty. But real ricotta as Tebasile says is recooked - the whey after milk has been produced with rennet etc has still got protein which comes out of so;ution when cooked. So you don't get a lot of ricotta.
But the cottage cheese, paneer, fromage frais type recipes are usually a suitable alternative.
You can make it from junket - cut junket roughly with a knife once set and then strain it through muslin or Chux. Still haven't posted it here :(

Bron, I asked LEO (http://dict.leo.org/esde?lp=esde&lang=de&searchLoc=0&cmpType=relaxed§Hdr=on&spellToler=std&chinese=both&pinyin=diacritic&search=molke&relink=on) 8). He told me: el suero :D

I made some today using http://www.superkitchenmachine.com/2011/12574/make-ricotta-thermomix-recipe.html?sms_ss=facebook&at_xt=4dd1c20d4908f09a%2C0 looks good - now I just need to try to add some photos.
Also - do I just throw the whey away, or can it be used in something else?
-
bTc, here (http://www.forumthermomix.com/index.php?topic=3311.0) is a thread about whey.
-
Thank you judydawn - I always shake my head at people who ask questions without even looking for an answer - & then I go and do it :-))
Now that I have read all about whey - I am not sure that the product that I have is actually whey...
-
Hi do you know how long I warm the whey for? and at what speed?
Many thanks
Ruby
