What is

What is
  • Ricotta is an Italian whey cheese made from sheep or cow, goat, or Italian water buffalo milk whey left over from the production of cheese.
  • Like other whey cheeses, it is made by coagulating the proteins that remain after the casein has been used to make cheese, notably albumin and globulin.
  
  • Cuajada is technically a type of fresh cheese that is made from milk curds, although some consider it more of a pudding.
  • It is popular in Northern Spain and areas of South and Central America such as Nicaragua, Brazil and Costa Rica.
