Homemade Ricotta
Tonight I tried my first cheese experiment: ricotta made from hand-milked goat milk. Ricotta isn't actually a cheese because, well, I forget why. But it was tasty. I served it with linguini and a walnut-garlic-fresh basil-chive-olive oil sauce. (The basil grew on my window sill.) And of course whole wheat garlic bread-- though I confess I bought the bread at Albertson's as I was browsing the bakery section today.
Somehow there's nothing quite as satisfying as putting food on the table that I made myself (with some help from Christy the goat). And Albertson's had rennet in their baking department, so more cheese experiments will be forthcoming.
