Chef's Notes

What is smooth ricotta?
Smooth ricotta has the whey blended back into the ricotta. This creates smooth, creamy ricotta.  You will find smooth ricotta easily in the supermarket.
Can I use fresh, drained ricotta in this recipe?
Fresh, drained ricotta can be used in this recipe instead of the smooth ricotta. Simply mix a few tablespoons of milk into drained ricotta to create a smooth texture.
What to do if the Baked Ricotta doesn’t brown.
Put the Baked Ricotta just put it under the grill/broiler for a couple of minutes until it colours a bit more.

Delicious! I no longer had the whey nor did I have milk. I used 1/2 & 1/2 to smooth the ricotta and it did the job.

Can I reheat this later. ?Is it still excellent then?
