Ricotta.

Tomorrow I make my first sourdough loaf from the starter we made at the Purple Pear Farm about 10 days ago. I've got a couple of photos from the day but I left my memory card at home and they were saved to the camera and at this point I can't find the plug-in to download them. If I ever find it I'll put them up.

I made some ricotta this morning as we're having home-made Ricotta and Prosciutto pizzas tomorrow. The pizza dough is hand-made, tomato paste home made as well, the baby spinach and other herbs are home-grown, and now the ricotta is made here. The prosciutto is bought and always will be!


                                                                 The ricotta draining.


The finished product; into a sealed container for a couple of hours to chill and it's ready to eat. You can of course eat it there and then if you wish; I know people who do and nothing much makes it to the fridge.   :)
