I live in Southern Thailand and have never found Ricotta in any of the stores here. We’ve got Carrefour, Tesco and used to have Top’s Market at Central Department store until it flooded…there just aren’t any other stores that carry imported ingredients here.

So, like many frustrated home chefs here, I’ve learned to make my own sauerkraut, mayonnaise. sour cream, mustard’s, etc….so now I can add Ricotta to my list!

Thanks a bunch!

I made ricotta yesterday and used it in a lasagna – turned out great. :)

Thanks for the other lovely/helpful comments everyone.

I only had 2 % milk and thought I’d see if that would work and it did..beautifully.

I will try it with whole milk after I go to the market and will post again when I can compare the two. I’m thinking I might get more cheese from the whole milk, but am sure it can’t taste any better.

Thaanks so much for posting this recipe!!!!!!

I get so frustrated because I can only find Ricotta in my local store that has lots of fillers/additives in it. Now, I can use something healthier instead! Thanks for posting this recipe!!!

You can also try lemon juice instead of vinegar.

I think that 2% would either yield a lower volume and maybe less creamy ricotta. That said, the recipe is easy and cheap so you may as well give it a try!
