$6.49 Grande Sopraffina Ricotta Cheese Must ship express to the West Coast. Grande's All Natural Ricotta Sopraffina (so-pra-FEE-nah) Cheese has a smooth and superfine flavor with a texture that compliments and enhances any cooking or baking application where a light taste and distinctly smooth texture is desired. Ricotta cheese is an Italian dairy product made from sheep, cow, buffalo or goat milk when left over from the production of cheese. It's not technically a cheese because it is not produced by coagulation of casein. It's made from coagulating other milk proteins, notably albumin and globulin, left over in the whey that separates from the milk during the production of cheese. Our Pennsylvania Macaroni's own Carol Pascuzzi, many of you know her as "Dear Hear" suggests using Sopraffina Ricotta Cheese as a wonderful addition to your Italian Easter Ricotta Pie.
