To prevent ricotta cheese from becoming grainy, opt for a high-quality whole milk variety that is rich and creamy.

How To Make Store Ricotta Better?

To enhance the flavor of store-bought ricotta cheese, mix in ingredients like herbs such as basil, thyme, or rosemary, garlic, lemon zest, black pepper, or a touch of honey for sweetness. Adding roasted red peppers, sun-dried tomatoes, or diced fresh fruits can also introduce additional flavors and textures.
