- 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.
Swiss cheese is a mild cheese made from cow's milk and has a firmer texture than baby Swiss. The flavor is mild, sweet and nut-like.
