Artisan Salted Ricotta Cheese

Artisan Salted Ricotta from Southern Italian Tradition

Salted Ricotta is one of the most representative cheeses of Southern Italian gastronomy. Made from sheep's and goat's milk whey, it is crafted using artisan methods, then salted and left to mature until it develops a firm texture that is easy to grate. Its delicate yet distinctive flavour makes it an essential ingredient in Mediterranean cooking, enhancing many traditional recipes.

A Balanced Flavour and Firm Texture

Salted Ricotta stands out for its ivory-white colour, the characteristic shape left by traditional cheese baskets, and a firm paste that makes it easy to slice or grate. Sheep's and goat's milk give it a harmonious, pleasantly aromatic flavour, perfect for enhancing dishes without overpowering them. Artisan production preserves all the qualities of this simple, authentic product.

Perfect on Pasta and in Traditional Recipes

Salted Ricotta is ideal grated over pasta with tomato sauce, meat ragù, fresh pasta and typical Lucanian and Southern Italian dishes. It also pairs beautifully with vegetables, salads, aubergines, courgettes and other Mediterranean recipes. Its balanced taste and versatility enrich every dish with simplicity and authenticity.
