    Made these for Xmas lunch and they were yum. Made the Gourgeres the day before and also the RIcotta. On the day I assembled them and reheated for 10 mins. They were very yummy. Managed to get the Gruyere at a large Coles. I had to look on another recipe for the ricotta as it needed more heating. I found the nutmeg burnt on the bottom of the bowl but didn't effect the flavour. Will be making again - definitely.

    The ricotta cheese is made by heating the milk and adding the vinegar. 1l of milk is one litre!

    There is no mention of how much Ricotta cheese and also what is 1 milk ?.

    Hi Carojoy,

    The Ricotta from scratch makes approximately 180g - 200g.

    Happy cooking!

    Fabulous!

    These were delicious and very popular. I substituted Swiss cheese for gruyere. Some I piped very small and served without filling as a little cheesy puff, others larger and with a piped rosette of filling. I don't think piping is really necessary, and if I pipe next time I need a bigger star nozzle! First time I'd made ricotta too.
