Olympus Ricotta, tomatoes and fresh basil are the Olympus Ricotta, tomatoes and fresh basil are the best ingredients for a delicious ricotta tart. This one was sooo good. 👌⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ I made the shortcrust pastry, but you could also use a good quality store-bought pastry. This turns it into a quick lunch or dinner that's ready in 30 minutes. I've popped the recipe up in our Insta bio, or below. ⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ I hope you enjoyed this month's deep dive into ricotta and picked up an idea or two to use at home? If you missed the recipes from this month, you can find them all via the link in our bio. But folks, the fun doesn't stop there, because next month's going to be even better. For two reasons...⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ 1. Because our recipes for March are all about that halloumi 🙌 and... ⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ 2. Because we've got an exciting collaboration coming up!⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ Next week, you get to meet the super talented Elizabeth from Can Cook. She's a nutritionist from Brisbane (where all the best people live!) who is passionate about sharing the skills of cooking that so many of us miss out on, and which deter us from actually eating in (and being healthy!)⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ In March, Liz will be sharing her perspective on cooking and eating Olympus Cheese products. We can't wait for you to learn more about her, and to steal all her Olympus recipe ideas for your own!⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ Please follow Elizabeth @cancook_ and watch what she'll be up to in March, both on her account and ours. Yay! ⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ #ricottatomatotart #cheeseandfriends #cheeselover⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ https://www.olympuscheese.com.au/recipe/olympus-ricotta-and-cherry-tomato-tart/⁠
All that lovely ricotta. Still warm, and ready to All that lovely ricotta. Still warm, and ready to pop into the fridge to cool. Ricotta is a young cheese, and it is usually packed within 48 hours of making, with a short shelf life. A good ricotta uses the best milk and is a pretty good example of #farmtotable at its best. ⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ That tradition of using good, simple ingredients, and not wasting it, is at the heart of Mediterranean and Cypriot food. ⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ The process for making ricotta is similar to our Cypriot 'anari.' Ricotta is generally the closest we have to fresh anari in Australia (unless you're making it at home). Anari needs to be eaten soon after making. ⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ Traditionally, fresh anari is eaten warm straight from the pot with honey and cinnamon. ⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ It can also be salted and dried and grated for pasta, or to make our traditional Easter dish, flaounes. ⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ Fresh anari is also used to fill bourekia (a pastry which can be either sweet or savoury). Many recipes use ricotta instead. ⠀ ⠀ For versatility, ricotta is the most amazing cheese isn’t it? For ideas with ricotta, check out this month’s recipes through the link in our bio.
With stone fruit in season, an easy, delicious des With stone fruit in season, an easy, delicious dessert has got to be these amazing grilled peaches with a ricotta-mascarpone whip. ⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ Eating this really felt decadent, even though it's a super healthy dish! You could replace the peaches with whatever seasonal stone fruit you'd like to use, just adjusting the sugar if you need to. ⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ Usually what's in season is juicy, and sweet and doesn't require added sugar, especially when it's grilled like this! #recipeinbio #doyourselfafavour #ricottatryit⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ https://www.olympuscheese.com.au/recipe/ricotta-mascarpone-whip-with-grilled-peaches/⁠⠀
Ricotta's high moisture content means that it also Ricotta's high moisture content means that it also has a very short shelf life. Ricotta should be consumed within two days of opening. But that shouldn't deter you from buying it. What are some quick ideas for leftover ricotta that won't leave you slaving over a stove for hours?⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ 🍯Spoon it onto some thick toast and drizzle with honey.⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ 🍝Stir it through pasta in place of a creamy sauce⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ 🍕Add ricotta to a pizza⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ 🥗Break it up over a salad or roasted vegetables⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ 🥞Make some fritters or pancakes with it⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ 🥄Whip ricotta into a sweet topping for fruit⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ ❄️Freeze it for later. While it's not going to be as nice as it was fresh, it might still do for cooking (and is much better than throwing it away!)⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ Head to our bio where we have lots more yummy recipes for making the most of good quality ricotta. ⁠
