Recipe Story

I love this - BUT you must use a high quality parm - you want the very best italian reggiano you can get, aged at least 2 years and the color of the cheese should be yellow or golden, not a chalky white

Ingredients

 
15 oz ricotta cheese
 
1 cup grated fresh parmesan
 
1 tsp salt
 
6 eggs, separated
 
1 Tbs butter
 
1 Tbs finely grated parmesan cheese

Directions

Drain ricotta in a cheesecloth lined sieve if watery.
Combine ricotta, parmesan and salt. Add egg yolks, one at a time, beating after each addition.
Beat egg whites until stiff.
Butter an 8" souffle dish. Fold whites into cheese mixture. Turn into souffle dish and sprinkle with additional
parmesan. Bake at 400 F for 30 minutes or until puffed and golden. Serve immediatly or refrigerate and serve cold.
