Is ricotta the chameleon of the cheese world? The creamy curds have their place in savoury dishes, but today it’s sweet ricotta things we’re wanting. The cheese’s exquisite fluffiness makes it prime material for cakes, hot cakes and puddings, and once you’ve had ricotta in doughnut and fritter form, you won’t look back.
