Recipe's preparation

    Instructions
  1. 1. Add milk & cream.

    2. Heat 13 minutes, 90 degrees, speed 2.

    AS SOON AS IT REACHES 90 DEGREES STOP HEATING - can be quicker than this time depending on whether milk and cream were in fridge etc.

    3. As soon as it hits 90 degrees, add a pinch of salt. Set timer to 2 min 30 sec, speed 1, reverse Counter-clockwise operation"Counter-clockwise operation" Slowly drizzle in vinegar in with MC on.

    4. Once split, place a chux cloth OR cheese cloth in simmering basket OR use a cheese mold. Pour through and let sit and drain in your thermoserver (about an hour).

    5. at this time you may choose to add some herbs of your liking into your cheese mold so flavours infuse through to serve.

Tip

Keep an eye on the time as it reaches temperature.

You can use your simmering basket for a cheese mold with a cloth, but you may choose to use a proper cheese mold with smaller gaps so no need for a cloth.

I like to add fresh herbs from the garden in my mold so it mixes through as it sets.

You can use the whey from this recipe if using good quality fresh milk to make another batch of ricotta following these steps again.

Thermomix Model

  • Appliance TM 5 image
    Recipe is created for
    TM 5
    If you are using a Thermomix® TM6 measuring cup with your Thermomix® TM5:
    For cooking (simmering) at temperatures of 95°C or above (200°F), the simmering basket should always be used instead of the TM6 measuring cup, as the TM6 measuring cup fits tightly in the lid. The simmering basket rests loosely on top, is steam-permeable, and also prevents food spatter from the mixing bowl.
    Please note that the TM5 mixing bowl has a larger capacity than the TM31 (capacity of 2.2 liters instead of 2.0 liters for TM 31). Recipes for the Thermomix TM5 may not be cooked with a Thermomix TM31 for safety reasons without adjusting the quantities. Risk of scalding by spraying of hot liquids: Do not exceed the maximum filling quantity and observe the filling level markings of the mixing bowl!
