What is Ricotta & Mozzarella?

Ricotta and mozzarella are two types of cheese, typically made from cow or buffalo milk. For some dishes, specifically in Italian cuisine, both cheeses are mixed together to create a rich and creamy filling for pastas and pizzas. Ricotta is a soft, fresh cheese. It is white, has a fine curd-like texture and a milky and gently sweet flavor. Mozzarella is white, slightly salty and mild, with a medium-soft texture. Mixed together both cheeses create a mild umami taste.
