About WHOLE MILK RICOTTA CHEESE
Hy-Vee Whole Milk Ricotta Cheese is made from whey, pasteurized whole milk and milk fat, skim milk, vinegar, salt, and a triple gum stabilizer system of xanthan, locust bean, and guar gum. A 62g serving has 161 calories, 11.29g of fat, 8.06g of protein, and 3.23g of carbs. Whole milk ricotta has a creamier texture and richer flavor than part-skim versions due to the higher fat content from the milkfat addition. It suits lasagna, stuffed pasta, desserts including cannoli filling, and as a protein-rich toast spread.
