About Pastizzi riccota
Pastizzi Ricotta is a savory pastry originating from Maltese cuisine, renowned for its flaky, golden crust and creamy ricotta filling. Typically handmade, the puff pastry is rich and buttery, encasing a smooth mixture of ricotta cheese subtly seasoned for a delicate yet satisfying flavor. This snack is highly popular in Malta and often enjoyed fresh from bakeries as a comforting, on-the-go treat. While ricotta provides a source of protein and calcium, the pastry is high in calories, saturated fats, and refined carbohydrates due to the liberal use of butter or margarine. As a result, Pastizzi Ricotta is best enjoyed in moderation, making it an occasional indulgence rather than a staple of a healthy diet. Despite its indulgent nature, it remains a beloved cultural and culinary staple for those looking to experience Maltese heritage through food.
