When I found the snail section in Platina, nearby
I noted a recipe for "Articificial Recota". Is this
faking the cheese we know as riccotta today
or something else? It is interesting, because
riccotta is a secondary cheese product made
from the whey after the solids have solidified out
in making other cheeses. The process is somewhat
involved and the yield is very small. I have made
my own cheeses for many years now but seldom
bother with riccotta unless I just precipate it out
with lemon juice for quick and dirty lemon riccotta.
