My Sicilian father used to make this every sunday for breakfast! he used lemon juice instead of vinegar and it was out of this world! 🤤he would then drink the leftover whey like it was coffee😂
i miss you papá❤

For those of you unfamiliar with chef John or his skills in the kitchen, buckle up because you are in for quite a trip down the culinary rabbit hole. Chef John is the best teaching chef since Alton Brown.

Your narration is such a roller coaster

Chef John returning to my feed with shorts makes me happy.

[gluedmango]

Suddenly hearing that voice while scrolling shorts really caught me off guard. Absolute joy to have you finally getting into Shorts, chef!

I almost immediately swiped up... then I heard that voice. I knew ... Chef John!!! I've missed you! Where you been! ❤

Its amazing how many different cheeses can be made with just slight variation on milk and acid

[abaddon]

Ricotta, meaning "twice cooked", is made from leftover whey from rennet cheesemaking. This cheese is a kind of acid set cheese, colloquially called farmer's cheese, still good and a great quick homemade substitute for ricotta, and if blended/food processed with a touch of the strained liquid from the "ricotta" you get cream cheese😊

All the Italian grandmothers, aunts and mothers make this in my family. Soooo good!!!

I lived in Boston’s Italian North End, and 1-2 weeks before Easter this giant silver milk truck pulls up next door and for the rest of the weekend all I could smell was warm sweet milk heating for what would eventually become ricotta. Amazing.

I think I discovered your channel around 10 years ago. It's impressed me that you still deliver the same 'YOU' all this time. I wish nothing but the best for your life chef. I love your videos.

[chasedooley]

I’ve made this ricotta so many times, it’s foolproof and delicious. I’ve used it on toast with honey and in Chef John’s baked ziti recipe!! Goood stuff

[madwilliamflint]

And adding a drizzle of honey is just next level. It's so good.

This is paneer in India. Except you strain it, rinse the solid, closely tie it, leave it in the sink with heavy pan on the top.few hours later, cut it in cubes. It's ready to use.

[SuperJuiceman]

Once again a recipe calling for whole milk and heavy cream... as person who drinks half and half by the glass...I love this

[madcomrade]
