{"id":8280,"count":13,"description":"<b>Ricotta<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> is a delicate <\/span><b>Italian cheese<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> made from whey. It resembles quark, but unlike it, it boasts a <\/span><b>sweeter and more delightful taste.<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> Additionally, ricotta also stands out for its significant <\/span><b>protein<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> content and relatively low <\/span><b>fat content.<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> This makes it a versatile food that fits well into both <\/span><b>sweet<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> and <\/span><b>savoury recipes<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">.<\/span>\r\n<h2><strong>Ricotta in sweet recipes<\/strong><\/h2>\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Ricotta works wherever you would typically use <\/span><b>creamy quark.<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> Thanks to its unique taste, it will provide your recipes with a softer and sweeter touch. Paired with fruits, it stands out, for example, on <\/span><b>crepes<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> or <\/span><b>pancakes<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">. Moreover, the fans of sweet treats will also appreciate it as a filling for <\/span><b>fruit dumplings. <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Due to its smooth consistency, it's suitable for making <\/span><b>ice cream<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> or adding a creamy texture to fruit <\/span><b>smoothies<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">.<\/span>\r\n<h2><b>What to bake with ricotta?<\/b><\/h2>\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Ricotta has versatile uses in baking.
