A variation of Ricotta, this pure white, firm, rindless cheese originated in the hot, dry island climate of Sicily. It is made from lightly salted sheep's milk curd that is pressed and dried, then aged for a minimum of three months. Ricotta Salata has a supple, mild taste. It's not at all "sheepy" or salty, but rather has a nutty, sweet milky flavor. Extremely versatile, Ricotta Salata can be used in salads and pasta dishes and is ideal for grating.
  • Made from pasteurized sheep's milk.
  • Photo depicts whole 6 lb. form of cheese.
  • We cut and wrap this item by the 1/2 pound.
  • Please contact us if you would like to purchase the whole form.

Slight musty flavor
I didn't really care for this cheese, but I throw it into random foods in order to use it up. I think I will make some lasagna to finish it out.

great cheese
I like to use this instead of the Ricotta you usually find in the grocery store. Far more options for use and better flavor

Ricotta salata
Arrived when they said it would and was still chilled. Tasted great! Thank you!

toast it!
for a surprise, and great on the appetizer tray, lightly brown thin slices in a 350 oven... idea from an old Sicilian woman...

Excellent Product
The freight cost where almost three times the cost of the cheese. This is probablt my last purchase from iGourmet. The cheese was excellent.

Good versatile cheese
Texture more solid and less crumbly than past purchases. Prefer the crumbly texture.

Great versatile cheese
I like to crumble this rather than shred it and serve with fresh fruit, especially pear and apple.

One of the best I ever had
I have had Ricotta Salata all my life in fact I even make my own but this was so good that as soon as it was opened it was gone just as fast. Wish I could buy larger amoumts at a better price. (A note from igourmet.com: You can! Please contact us with the amount you would like to purchase.)
