About this event
Learn how to make ricotta, then proudly showcase it in an Italian-inspired dinner menu. Hands-on. You’ll work in small teams during class.
So simple, yet so good. Rich, yet light in texture, homemade ricotta is a prime example of how three ingredients (milk, an acid, and salt) can come together to make a huge difference in a finished dish. In class, we’ll experiment with different acidifying agents to create ricotta in easy, cost-effective ways that you can easily replicate at home.

Once we’ve made our homemade ricotta, we’ll use the finished product in an Italian-inspired menu of appetizers, entrée, and dessert that showcases the versatility of the beloved cheese, including the whey (a natural by-product of cheesemaking). At the end of class, you’ll get to sit down and enjoy the impressive ricotta-filled meal you’ve created. You will be working in a small group.
