About Part skim ricotta
Part skim ricotta is a creamy, versatile cheese originating from Italy, commonly used in dishes like lasagna, ravioli, and desserts such as cannoli. Made from whey collected during the production of other cheeses, it’s lower in fat compared to whole milk ricotta, as it uses less cream in the process. Its mild flavor and soft texture make it ideal for both savory and sweet recipes. A good source of protein and calcium, part skim ricotta supports bone health and muscle repair, while its lower fat content may appeal to those seeking a lighter dairy option. However, it still contains moderate levels of saturated fat and sodium, so portion control is recommended for individuals monitoring heart health or calorie intake. Whether baked into casseroles or enjoyed fresh with fruit and honey, part skim ricotta offers a versatile and nutritious choice in the kitchen.
