Homemade ricotta cheese



Tonight I made ricotta cheese. We have LOTS of milk in our fridge. I separated the two doelings from their momma this week so now I'm milking two goats 2x a day. I also made butter for the first time this week. I didn't take a picture of it, so next time I will. It was very white! But, I don't mind the change in color as it was VERY good! I only had a little bit of cream on the top of my milk jars so I only made a little bit, but I hope to make some more soon.
I'll use the ricotta cheese for making lasagna or stuffed shells...hmmm, now I'm getting hungry!
