Lira Rossa Ricotta Affumicata
Lira Rossa Artisan Cheese



Our Ricotta Affumicata, or smoked ricotta, is made with Texan taste buds in mind. Originally, it was a development from the mountainous region of Friuli created to prevent the ricotta from spoiling before it was transported down the mountain. By smoking it, cheese makers found the ricotta would last longer. We have adopted this classic recipe by smoking our ricotta fresca with pecan wood giving it a Texas flavor.
The exterior of the Ricotta Affumicata is brown and smoky while the inside is compact and light as in the color of ricotta. The smooth texture and sweet smoky flavor is a perfect fit grated on any dish or added to a cheese platter. Pair it with a dry white wine such as a Friulano.
