FRESH BERRIES & SWEET RICOTTA
Steps:
- Place the Homemade Ricotta in a medium bowl and stir in the sugar, honey, and vanilla. Set aside at room temperature for up to 2 hours. In another bowl, combine the strawberries, raspberries, and blueberries.
- When ready to serve, divide the berries among 6 bowls. With an ice cream scoop, place a large dollop of the ricotta in each bowl and drizzle with lots of the Fresh Raspberry Sauce. Sprinkle with the lemon zest and serve.
- Set a fine-mesh sieve over a deep bowl. Dampen 2 pieces of cheesecloth with water and line the sieve with a double layer of the cheesecloth.
- Pour the milk and cream into a medium stainless-steel or enameled pot, such as Le Creuset, and stir in the salt. Bring to a full rolling boil over medium heat, stirring occasionally. Turn off the heat and pour in the vinegar. Allow the mixture to stand for one minute, until it curdles. It will separate into thick parts (the curds) and milky parts (the whey).
- Pour the mixture into the cheesecloth-lined sieve and allow it to drain into the bowl at room temperature for 20 minutes (for soft ricotta) to 25 minutes (for firmer ricotta), occasionally discarding the liquid that collects in the bowl. Transfer the ricotta to a bowl, discarding the cheesecloth and any remaining liquid. Use immediately or cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate.
- The ricotta will keep, refrigerated, for 4 to 5 days.
- Place the raspberries, sugar, and 1/4 cup water in a small saucepan over medium heat. Bring to a boil, lower the heat, and simmer for 4 minutes. Pour the cooked raspberries, the jam, and the framboise into the bowl of a food processor fitted with the steel blade and process until smooth. Pour into a container and chill. The sauce can be refrigerated for up to one week.
WHIPPED CREAM WITH FRESH BERRIES
Steps:
- Add the heavy cream and sugar to the chilled bowl of a stand mixer (you can also use a hand mixer or a whisk and a large chilled bowl). Whip on medium speed until the cream holds soft peaks. Add the vanilla bean paste, creme fraiche, orange zest and orange liqueur and whip on medium speed until the cream holds medium peaks.
- Layer fruit in a bowl, spoon over whipped cream and serve.

WHIPPED RICOTTA WITH HONEY AND MIXED BERRIES
Cool, refreshing, pretty and wonderfully appetizing. Originally, Bon Appetit - 2001. We added cream cheese to the ricotta to make this a smooth, luscious dessert.Why not use this with cranberries for Thanksgiving? Haven't done it as yet but why not? If you can find fresh ricotta, which is less grainy, then use it and omit the cream cheese. Can be made 1 day ahead, keep refrigerated and stir before using. It is very easy - time involved is refrigerator time. Update...03/2006 Serve with Amaretti cookies, coarsely chopped and add 3 tbsp. Amaretto liqueur.
