The Best Recipe of All-Time: Homemade Ricotta❤️

heavy cream

🥗Healthier: Greek yogurt

💰Cheaper: milk + cornstarch

Greek yogurt reduces calories while maintaining creaminess

Pour 1 gallon of whole milk and 1/4 cup of heavy cream into a saucepan.

Heat the milk and cream over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until it reaches about 175-180°F, which takes about 20-30 minutes.

Once the milk is bubbling, add 1 tablespoon of sugar and 1 teaspoon of salt, and stir well.

After a few minutes, add 1 tablespoon of white vinegar to the mixture to help it curdle.

Keep stirring for about 5 minutes until curds start to form, then turn off the heat.

Fill a strainer or basket with the curds and whey, allowing it to drain into a bowl.

Let the curds strain for about 10 minutes to achieve the desired consistency.

Transfer the ricotta to a bowl and drizzle with honey before serving.
