    • @nerofl89
      @nerofl89 Рік тому +1

      "Giovanni really knew his stuff," except that he ridiculously said ricotta is not a cheese ( 1:10 mark). Cheese is coagulated milk protein which, unshockingly, is the very basis of ricotta. Since the early bronze age (at least if not before) the peoples of the Italic peninsula have used the basic principle of acidifying milk to coagulate milk proteins and form curds. All ricotta does is remove some of the leftover proteins from rennet cheesemaking by recooking (being the root of ricotta) an already acidic milk product to cause some of the remaining proteins to coagulate and form curds.

    • @FakeGuthix01
      @FakeGuthix01 Рік тому +1

      @@nerofl89 In some contexts, "cheese" is used specifically to refer only to products made out of casein, which ricotta is not, as all the casein is removed in the primary cheese making stage with the rennet.

    • @nerofl89
      @nerofl89 Рік тому

      @@FakeGuthix01 You mean "highly specific contexts" and not "some." Either way, ricotta does have casein, just not as much as typical cheeses. The rennet does not remove all the casein, and most traditional recipes for ricotta include adding a portion of milk to aid in the process of removing the remaining protein in the whey.

    Just realised how strong the Pugliese accent is. Never really paid attention to it since I used to go there every summer, I thought every Italian spoke like this. Listening to the accent difference between Claudia and Giovanni is striking. Oof, I dearly miss Puglia.

    When I lived in Rome, I ate ricotta al forno as often as I could. The basket in which the ricotta was made is a sort of wicker, and when put directly into a raging fire - the burning wicker basket flavours the ricotta, which also bakes and gets something of a rind. By the way, that cheesemaker has the cutest little belly.
