  • Hey Kelly! So glad you could stop by!<br /><br />I get cheesecloth at Sur La Table, Williams Sonoma, Crate &amp; Barrel or sometimes they have it at the regular grocery story in the baking aisle. If not, order it at amazon.<br /><br />I will post salad dressing recipes soon, thanks for reminding me!!!<br /><br />XOXO

    Amazon for cheesecloth.

  • Cheesecloth at any dollar store, enough to make your recipe 3-4 times at least.

  • Even easier to make in the crockpot! I mix 1/2 gallon milk and 4 tablespoons of white vinegar in the crockpot, keep on low until it reaches 180 degrees F. It’ll take hours to get there! Then, turn off the crockpot and leave it alone for at least six hours. Strain with a cheesecloth when a solid curd has formed.

    Anna,
    Have you attempted this recipe with coconut milk and Trader Joe’s coconut cream? I have dairy. gluten, corn and soy issues.

    • I have not. I don’t think it would work that well. Instead, do the method I use in Eat Happy too for the Dairy Free Ranch and Dairy Free Caesar recipes: soaking raw cashews and then pureeing them. Then you can add a little bit of lemon juice if you want it to have that more tart taste.
      XOXO

    How long will the ricotta last on the fridge? Could I make it a day ahead?
