Fresh Pesto Whole Milk Herbed Ricotta

Fresh Pesto layered within our rich creamy whole milk pressed Ricotta. With each slice, you get a lovely balance of both pesto and cheese. Perfection by the spoonful, but divine on crackers, fresh baguettes, pasta, wood fired pizza, or stuffed shells.

Why is my Ricotta different?

I have been making whole milk Ricotta for over 14 years, and over time have combined techniques from a variety of traditional recipes to perfectly convert the rich in butterfat whole milk to rich flavorful Ricotta. Ricotta is normally made with whey left over from making other cheeses, but I make mine with fresh, whole Jersey milk, resulting in a consistency and flavor that is unlike any other. The fresh herbs and light bit of salt takes the flavor of this cheese and sends it over the moon.
