No way… Now I’m definitely going to give my roses some whey! Dhanka❣️

@DryHollowHomestead Год назад

Ha ha makes for good plant food.

@jardinlafleur5491 Месяц назад

If you live on a farm roses love the leftover water after you prepare a chicken for dinner. Roses will appreciate any chicken-washing leftover water you give them. Beautiful flowers! A Canadian trick from so long ago that people will say it is gross. But my Grandmother had to go to the barn every Sunday morning and take one of her beloved chickens and....... she did it all and we had the most luxurious roses in Bruce Mines Ontario where the sun only sparks for about two months! You got to go when the going gets good or parish. Can you imagine Americans raising their own food> America Starves 2040

I am happy to see that you decided to make ricotta. I will give you a tip, to save some time. When I put the cheese in the press, I immediately start warming up the whey, so it does not take too long to reach the temperature (medium heat). I also add 1 heaping tbs of salt in the warm whey, so you don't have to do that at the end, and the ricotta takes what it needs from there. If I want to be fancy, I also add a cup of cream to the whey and the final product is very creamy and flavorful, but that is optional. I never drain the ricotta more than 1h, 1h1/4 so it has a creamy consistency. You can drain it long if you know that you need it that way. I use ricotta for lemon ricotta cake, lasagna, mix it with herbs and make spreads, and many times I leave it as is, put some on a plate and pour a little maple syrup on it and a few pecans and have it like that as dessert. When the final whey cools off I still give it to the plants in the garden. Something else you can do with the whey, if you want to experiment and when you are not too busy, is whey caramel. Put the whey (or part of it) in a slow cooker and reduce the whey for 24h until it is thicker. Add some sugar and butter to it and you have a perfect topping for desserts. see the link for inspiration:ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-TZZvCNEKTBI.html

You can use whey to ferment vegetables, in baking, add it to smoothies, so many things. It’s very nutritious and filled with so many vitamins, minerals, enzymes and protein. Also ricotta is sooooo good and can be used in so many more ways than just lasagna.

@evecampbell7744 Год назад

Cheesecake and other desserts, make flavored spreads for toast (great for breakfast or snacks), make appetizers for crackers, mix with fruit and put on granola.

It can be flavored with herbs or fruit or seeds and nuts. It's really pretty and the little gourmet flavored logs won't cost a ton like the grocery stores

@trappedinroom1014 9 месяцев назад

I’ve not tried it, but after taking out the ricotta, if you reduce down the whey on a low simmer for the rest of the day, you can make a caramel brown type of whey cheese. It’s a Norwegian delicacy/specialty cheese which would no doubt cost mega bucks to buy outside of Norway. You can add a bit of cream to the thickened reduced whey before you put it in a dish/mould to set firm, and also add a small spoonful of brown sugar, both of which gives it a subtle caramel taste that goes lovely with fruit jam. If you just search making Norwegian brown cheese here on RU-vid, there’s a few videos showing variations of the traditional recipe. I personally think that if you make this cheese as well as the cheddar and ricotta, that getting three cheeses out of one batch of milk is just awesome! 🙂💕👍🏻

@DryHollowHomestead 9 месяцев назад

Making my own Ricotta cheese is the only way to get Lemon Ricotta Cheese and it is so delicious! Made Raspberry Ricotta Cheese and then used it on a Chilpolte Seasoned Brisket with encrusted Raspberry Ricotta Cheese and reduced Balsamic Vinegar. Oh, MY! Roasted Mashed Potatoes with Roasted Beef Raspberry Gravy, Garlic, and whole Green Beans fresh picked. Baby Corn and Olive Salad with Rasberry Vinegarette. JUST THIS IS THE DISH THAT WILL CAUSE LOVE. APPREICATION. ROMANCE. HAPPINESS. COMEDY WATCHING. STAR GAZING........ with homemade Raspberry Cheesecake (Sprouts cream cheese). Simple. PS I serve an Arugula salad identical to Chick Filets about 5 ounces per dish.

Ricotta is good to use in a cheesecake. 50% ricotta, 50% cream cheese is what I use. Using 100% ricotta is an Italian cheese cake.

@jennyurquijo1750 4 месяца назад

We make golden ricotta tacos. Just mix the ricotta with some chopped onion, salt and finely chopped epazote herb. Hey some corn tortillas, heat them up and then put a spoonful of two of ricotta in the tortilla and roll it up and you can either fry it or bake them. Serve with green salsa, sliced onion in lime juice, sliced tomato, avocado and sour cream.

Can you use a natural vinegar instead of white distilled? Such as red wine or apple cider?

@DryHollowHomestead Год назад

Absolutely, just may be able to taste a difference. I don't love apple cider vinegar flavor in it but totally works. Red wine would be interesting to try.

@PeterSedesse 4 месяца назад

My use of ricotta is simple, I stir fry spinach, and then slowly add about equal parts of ricotta... and then top it on toast. this is one of my favorite snacks. To me the whey is too rich in protein to waste on plants. Even after you have done cheese, then ricotta, there is still plenty of protein in that 2nd whey. If you have chickens, just fill it up with chicken feed and let it soak overnight. If you do this frequently, the protein allows you to buy layer feed (much cheaper) for your meat chickens as you are basically adding a few % of protein to the layer feed.

@DryHollowHomestead 4 месяца назад

I have been soaking our chickens feed in my leftover whey lately. It's really helped with the feed cost! Thanks for watching ☺️

@ElCapitanKG Год назад

I recently tried to do this with whey from mozzarella, and it totally flopped. I was curious if it was cause it was from the mozzarella whey instead of a cultured whey, any thoughts? Thanks

@DryHollowHomestead Год назад

So sorry that didn't work 😭 I think because mozzarella is a high-acid cheese it doesn't turn out for me either. I have seen people online use mozz whey but I don't know how that works for them.

@Livingtabitha 10 месяцев назад

Do you have to heat the whey? I’d like it to be raw and after heating it like that you have pasteurized it and it is no longer raw.

@DryHollowHomestead 10 месяцев назад

I haven't heard of a way to make it without heating the whet but you should check out David Ashers book if you want the beat recipes for keeping the most nutrition in your cheesemaking. amzn.to/3ZpW9zA

@alakazazz 10 месяцев назад

Can I ask something? Whey is a by-product after making cream cheese (the process is similar, 3 table spoons of lemon juice to 1l of milk). So by boiling the leftover whey again and adding vinegar you can extract more curd? Did I get it wrong?

@DryHollowHomestead 10 месяцев назад

Hey, so I have trouble turning a cheese whey that was made with acid into ricotta. You can always try but if it doesn't work that would be why.

Unfortunately, it does kill more nutrition than I would like. Ricotta is made with high heat but there is a book by David Asher who does more recipes that are a lot more tricky but keeps the milk raw. Thanks for watching ☺️

@evelyny7037 5 месяцев назад

So, I just made your cottage cheese from my Rogo milk. It came out actually pretty well. I let it become clabor for about 48 hours. Now I have quite a bit of whey left, but wasn’t sure I could make ricotta from clabber? 🤔

@evelyny7037 5 месяцев назад

I have no idea why but when I hit the three little dots to try to correct my error, it will not let me. Raw milk…

@DryHollowHomestead 5 месяцев назад

So I've never tried making ricotta from something I made from clabber and I doubt it would work because clabber has a natural sourness. Adding an acid like vinegar may do nothing. Or it may be totally different. I'd love to know if you try.

@AnaMillsaps 6 месяцев назад

Do I need left over whey from hard cheeses to make it or can I make it from just left over whey from the ricotta. I don't make any other cheese.

@DryHollowHomestead 6 месяцев назад

I think that after you have added your acid to whey to make ricotta that you won't get any more use from that whey to make more ricotta.

@ginatrumbly3488 4 месяца назад

After you have made yogurt and then your ricotta is it time to throw the rest out if you don’t have a garden or do you keep using it over and over? This will be my first time trying this so it is a serious question. Thank you.

I have a question! If it is being heated to 195 wouldn’t it no longer be raw because pasteurization is around 160? I’m just curious I only eat or drink raw dairy and I was going to make the Ricotta for my wife because I figured it was no longer raw. She eats both raw milk and pasteurized cheeses.
