Ricotta cheese made of almonds

21-2-2013

TOP Food Lab regularly organizes jam sessions in the kitchen to experiment with products. Responding to the trends vegan, raw food and sustainability, a jam session resulted in a ricotta cheese made of almonds. The ricotta cheese of almonds has the same texture as dairy-based ricotta, the flavor is different (more nutty, less cheesy) and includes an acid that is also used in the production of cheese, that results in a cheese-like experience. The ricotta cheese contains no milk and is suitable for people with a lactose and cow’s milk allergy. TOP Food Lab wants to experiment more with curing, brining, using different kinds of molds and bacteria to make a ultimate mold cheese of almonds. The goal is to sell these cheeses in shops and restaurants.
