About RICOTTA CHEESE
Galbani Ricotta Cheese uses a whey-and-milk base soured with vinegar, a traditional approach that produces a lighter, slightly grainy texture compared to ricotta made from whole milk alone. Xanthan gum, locust bean gum, and guar gum stabilize the product and prevent whey separation on the shelf. The fat and protein content sit at moderate levels typical of part-skim ricotta, and the mild, fresh dairy flavor makes it compatible with both sweet preparations like cannoli filling and savory uses like lasagna or stuffed shells. It spreads easily and blends smoothly when whipped.
Ingredients
WHEY, MILK, VINEGAR, AND XANTHAN GUM, LOCUST BEAN GUM, GUAR GUM (STABILIZERS).
