Typically made from cow's milk, it's produced by heating whey - a common byproduct of other cheesemaking processes. Hence, the word "ricotta" translates to "recooked" in English. When the whey is heated and acidified, it forms the soft, fine curds that are so characteristic of ricotta, resulting in a delicate, airy cheese that's creamy yet relatively low in fat. You can even make your own ricotta at home by curdling boiled milk with lemon juice and then straining the mixture through a cheesecloth.

If you don't know digital creator, best-selling author, and FlavCity founder Bobby Parrish, I have only one question: Where have you been? A combined 20 million people follow his social channels where he shares grocery shopping guides and lifestyle tips focused on making healthy, nutritious food more accessible. Those responsibilities, plus those of running a major nutrition brand and being a husband and dad, also give him one more unofficial certification: professional on-the-go eater.

Content collections are pretty much exactly how they sound - collection of content items you can use within your Astro site. If you go through the excellent Astro tutorial you will find this discussed at the end in the final optional step step. Content collections aren't required - you can build dynamic sets of data just using file system operations (and that's how the tutorial has you build the blog) - but they make it easier (imo) to re-use content throughout the site.

Wondering how to cut fennel but not sure of the best way? I love this vegetable in a refreshing fennel salad or as tender roasted fennel. But it can be tricky to cut! Here's my method for how to cut a fennel bulb, including how to both slice and dice this tasty veggie. Video: How to Cut Fennel How to Cut Fennel, Step-By-Step

No doubt you've noticed that a gingerbread house tends to be a lot thinner, harder, and drier than a typical cookie. That's very intentional, as gingerbread houses are designed to be structurally sound. Pastry chef Katherine Sprung, when going over mistakes people make with gingerbread houses, told us, "A gingerbread cookie is going to be softer and more flavorful, since those are really meant to be eaten."

After years of making salmon recipes, I can finally say: I know a thing or two about how to cook this popular fish! I used to become frustrated by salmon that came out "fishy" tasting and mushy (has this happened to you?). So I started on a quest to nail based baked salmon, then moved on to different cooking methods and flavor combinations. As I went along, luckily I found my family loved these recipes, too.

Professional baker here: believing the baking times on the recipe. Every oven is different, every time you use that oven is different, etc. Timers are useful for reminding you that you have something in the oven, but beyond that, you have to know what done looks/feels like. Probe thermometers are your friend.

Usually, people are either in the French toast or pancake camp when it comes to breakfast, but there's no denying that a good waffle just really hits the spot every so often. Sweet, satisfying, and totally customizable, waffles can be a morning-time hero when prepared the right way, and there's one ingredient you can utilize to give them a quick protein boost: chickpeas.

When I heard that cottage cheese was experiencing some kind of renaissance, my first thought was: This is what comes of complacency. I'd thought of cottage cheese as being safely extinct, but per capita consumption statistics show that, while it fell slightly out of favour, it never really went away. And now it's having a moment. Or the latest in a series of moments.

It's an ingredient that's both delicious and nutritious, packing in an array of essential vitamins and minerals, and it's thought to possess anti-inflammatory properties, too. Coconut milk also serves as an excellent dairy-free substitute for traditional milk or cream. And, as canned foods go, it has to be one of the most versatile, since it fits seamlessly into a wide variety of sweet and savory recipes.

Google may be testing displaying different-sized cards for recipe results in the Google Search results. The cards show large and small graphics that make the results look misaligned. I am guessing it is a bug, because I cannot replicate it for all my recipe searches. I spotted this via Inspired Taste on X and I cannot replicate it for any other recipe search outside of [gravy recipes].

ground beef was averaging $8 a pound. I was aghast. Since when did a pound of 80/20 become a special little treat? We've been opting for ground chicken and turkey instead. As grocery prices continue to go up, what are you turning to to keep your own food bills down? Maybe it's rice or lentils, but don't forget about the humble bean. Canned

With a buttery, flaky pastry base and a rich, savory filling, quiche strikes the perfect balance between elegance and heartiness. This brunch favorite is typically made with eggs, heavy cream, cheese, and a medley of meat- or veggie-based add-ins, yielding a creamy, protein-rich dish that can feed a crowd. Quiche can be enjoyed warm or cold, and it makes for a delicious addition to a buffet-style lunch, served alongside a selection of complementary sides.

I have to confess that I'm a bit of a rice hater. Of all the starchy sides I could put on my plate, it's always going to fall behind two of my favorite comfort foods: potatoes and pasta. But as groceries get increasingly expensive, I think it's time to reexamine the humble side of rice. Because really, rice is what you make of it - and you can make it into pretty much anything. These simple rice recipes for dinner and sides will teach you new ways to use up your bag of rice, from elevated side dishes to complete meals.

Considered the sweet Kirkland brand snack that will actually impress your palate, these candied nuts boast a minimal list of ingredients, which include pecans, sugar, butter, brown sugar, sea salt, natural flavor, and sunflower oil. Reviews praise them as the best ever and a more affordable choice when compared to other, more expensive brands. It's clear that these sweets are enjoyable on their own as an indulgent snack.

Cooking in early fall can be confusing. Farmers markets and grocery stores are caught between two seasons: The last of the summer harvest is still perfectly ripe, while fall's first crops are already inching their way into the produce section. Do you keep leaning on summer salads and grilled vegetables, or start roasting squash and baking casseroles? Luckily, you don't have to choose; this is one of the most flexible times of the year in the kitchen.

When considering chefs that have forever changed the way we cook, Samin Nosrat expeditiously comes to mind. A teacher and Chez Panissetrained chef, Nosrat has built a career sharing the fundamentals of cooking. This has translated into her first #1 New York Times Bestselling and James Beard Award-winning book, Salt, Fat, Acid, Heat. The book's success landed her a Netflix documentary series adaptation. Nosrat took a much-needed break before turning out her latest endeavor, Good Things,

They have a comparable protein content and roughly the same amount of calories; but, when it comes to fiber, almond butter beats peanut butter. A serving of almond butter (two tablespoons) has around 3.3 grams of fiber, whereas peanut butter has half that amount. There seems to be a trend focused on consuming as much protein as possible, but fiber is an underrated nutrient that's finally getting its time in the spotlight - and almond butter is a delicious way to ensure you get enough.

Italian cuisine so often references old times; I love simple food and forgotten tales, too, but I also feel the need to escape this tradition. We opened our restaurant, Trattoria della Gloria, in Milan in 2023, and instinctively refused to spend every night selling a remote and often fictional past. Instead, we explore and experiment with ancient gestures, methods and pairings to create new old things. That is, dishes that our grannies could have made, but didn't.

September signals the wind-down of summer, which officially ends on the 22nd. It's a transitional month, one where some summer produce is still in season (corn, tomatoes, mangoes) but where autumn bounty is also starting to pop up (apples, pears, squash). I've scoured the internet to find the 30 best things to cook this month. These recipes celebrate the final few weeks of summer and the beginning of fall - sometimes at the same time.

The cookbook "Seasons of Greens" by Katie Reicher features vegetable-based dishes that celebrate local seasonal produce from farmers and the restaurant's own organic gardens.
