Hi! Italian here! Ricotta is actually made from the whey leftover from cheese production (Ricotta in italian means 're-cooked or cooked again'). Although there are a lot of homemade ricotta recipes around the internet that start from milk and tell you to use only the curds from the first round, doing that would not actually give you true ricotta cheese, so these recipes are technically incorrect. You could make ricotta with the whey leftover from making mozzarella cheese (hence the name ricotta, as you have to heat up the whey again 'cooking it again' after it has cooled while making mozzarella). In this video, the first time with the lemon juice and citric acid I guess you made cream cheese (if you blend it) or if you drain and press the curds together then you have a type of fresh Indian cheese called Paneer, which you can grill or cube up and add to salads, curries etc. After this step you can then use the leftover whey to make ricotta cheese, but without using the rennet which I think is not commonly used to make ricotta. Hope this helps! I love the way you just experiment with everything! 😊

As usual a beautiful video Lisa …a great way we here in the Middle East enjoy milk is to add some salt to a pot of sour yogurt (usually we ferment it for a good 12 -14 hours to get it solid and more sour) then strain it in a cheese cloth to get a consistency of cream cheese…it’s called Labaneh and it is sooooo good on sandwiches with sliced tomatoes, cucumbers and freshly chopped mint or Arabic thyme (zatar) … just an idea to enjoy all the wonderful milk you have in a different way… much love from Jordan

There is such an ease and familiarity with your videos. Like hanging out with a friend in the kitchen. You cook very much like I do. Enjoying the process and the result. There's nothing like nurturing your family with homemade food. I love that your channel brings this way of life to so many who might be unfamiliar. You show that it's not so hard and even mistakes are ok.

[@FarmhouseonBoone]

Thank you so much 😊

[@kimesser2318]

I have a suggestion for your sourdough. It looks like you’re under baking it. Before you take it out , take off your lid and bake for another 12~15 minutes uncovered. And then let it cool for at least a half an hour

[@bingoblue12]

Not all of her loaves are this pale so she does know how to cook it with the darker crust. I’m wondering if when she made this loaf, she knew she’d be using it to grill into grilled cheese, so maybe she didn’t want the bread to be as crusty to begin with.

[@jobe2301]

A lot of people do not like their bread to be brown, myself included. It tastes burnt to me! I only like it barely starting to turb a light gold, it is so much softer and nicer. To me, most people overbake the heck out of their bread, especially sourdough....

[@KayeLeanRamos]

Lisa I don’t know how you do it and where you get all your energy. Such a delight to see how you nourish your family. You are such an inspiration to me. I recently made a week of sourdough bread just like what you shared but I did some inclusion. I learn a lot from you and you’re one of my mama mentors and I only have one baby right now.

[@debraflowers5905]

I do enjoy watching you cook. You are so filled with knowledge and you have an adventure spirit. I like when you say don't throw it away, make something else with it. Your open faced grilled cheese looked so delicious! Ricotta with herbs! Wonderful! Definitely will be made in my home. I have just started watching KZbin a couple of months ago and my world has been opened to experiences I never knew about. I'm 65 and I have a lot to learn and do. Thank you so much for sharing your home with us. Your children are simply adorable.

[@thesewinggarden7311]

Welcome to KZbin! It is an exciting place to learn!!

[@Homeschoolmamato4]

Super delicious! Unfortunately with the inflation skyrocketing in my country (yours too I believe) I can't afford a lot of these meals anymore. Especially chicken (let alone organic) is out of this world expensive right now. I'm grateful I still get to feed my family healthy meals, even though they have become more simple.

[@angelicaflores6559]

Very,quick easy and tasty. Just spending time with each other is just a blessing and good moments for the childeren. You don't really have to do something so fancy, it's just building good moments with the family that is more than teasures. Love your style very real and busy.

[@modernhomesteadalaska]

So strange the chicken and peaches. It’s honestly one of my family’s favorites. I make it different but the idea of chicken and peaches is amazing together.

[@hollyu48]

I love that you allow your children to help and become comfortable in the kitchen, learning to feed themselves.

[@roxannaseaton5636]

I love to watch you cook from scratch, you are amazing. If you were close by I would gift you my large food processor. It makes chopping amazing fast. I used it to do onions and other things in advance to freeze for later. It was so quick. Now that it is just me and hubby I use my much smaller 2 cup size chopper.

[@househackingmom1098]

I like the style of this particular video compared to how you usually do your food vlogs. I like how there is less music and more just talking us through what you’re doing!

[@angelahagood7143]

Delicious episode! You are so adventurous in the kitchen! I never thought of using peaches in a Waldorf chicken salad! Yum! You’re so blessed to have a family that will eat a variety of fresh things! Love watching (and listening) to the kiddos. I adored that walnut conversation and the photo bomb moment! 🥰 You just can’t script that stuff. Thank you for the inspiration you give us all!

Lisa, I honestly love your channel just watching you in the kitchen cooking is so relaxing to me. Seeing all those beautiful from scratch dishes is wonderful. My mouth waters seeing the grilled cheese the chicken salad, lasagna and sloppy joes. I would love to be a kid around your table for dinner lol I would be asking for seconds with every meal. Thanks for giving your sourdough recipe to us, I am excited to start making it soon as I get my bowl to make it in. I just have to remember not to stir it with anything but a wooden spoon. I love sourdough breed and sear it in a hot buttered pan on the stove to make grilled cheese with tomato on it so delicious. Just wanted to say I enjoy watching your channel looking forward to seeing what is coming next!!

[@marymack1]

I think that's how we get recipes, by sparing food from the trash. I mean, from stale bread we get bread pudding, migas, french toast, etc. Flavors are often born out of necessity and availability.

[@FarmhouseonBoone]

So true!

[@MartaWis]

Watching your videos makes me so excited to cook and try new recipes. As a mom of 4, I have to do it a lot and have experienced a burnout in the past when it comes to cooking and coming up with what to cook, watching a passionate dedicated cook like you gives me so much joy and inspiration.

[@garymcdade4446]

Sheila McDade in Chattanooga here . . . My recipe for sloppy joe's is really good too. The only ingredients are ground beef, onion, ketchup, some sliced pickled jalapeno peppers and some of the vinegar from the jar of jalapeno peppers. I brown the beef and drain off the grease, then saute the onion and combine it all in the same skillet. Then I add lots of ketchup, the peppers and vinegar "to taste" and stir over medium heat for a couple of minutes. If you are concerned the peppers would be too hot omit them and just use the vinegar from the pepper jar. I hope you will try it!

[@eborth5427]

I love you are adding walnuts to your pesto instead of pine nuts, I like adding mixed nuts, almonds and Brazils as well as walnuts to pesto to add extra nutrition and I usually add a small amount of pine nuts even if adding other nuts to give it a bit of pesto creaminess, I actually think only pine nuts is too rich, and I’m Italian 🤩 🇮🇹

This was just the best! I have written a whole list of what I would like to eat this week, all sounds delicious. I loved the grilled cheese sandwich - homemade bread, homemade ricotta, homemade butter, homemade mozarella, home grown herbs - it must have been satisfying!

We use an electric knife to cut sourdough. It works better than just a regular knife. But my mom had a cheap, plastic electric meat slicer growing up. That was absolutely the best at cutting thin, even bread slices. It's a game changer. With as much bread as you make, I think it might be worth you getting one.

[@tamara4557]

Interesting, I know chicken in peach sauce but never had a creamy version. I really need to try if my daughter will eat waldorf salad; she never had it and only recently started eating salads really. Love your checker patterned dressed btw!

I was having the same problem with my mayo and I figured out that if you slowly add your oil while you are blending that it works perfectly every time!

To make to fluffiest rice that is far from dry: add to a pan a fair amount of oil and butter. Add some vermicelli. Brown it. Then add the washed rice (preferably short grain white rice). Shortly bake it in the butter and oil. Add equal parts boiling watwr and a tiny bit more. Add fair amount of salt (water should taste a bit salty). After 20 minutrs u have the most fluffiest delicious tasting rice.

[@fromheelstohills]

Hi Lisa! The very first time I tried making ricotta using my leftover whey from making mozorella was almost a fail because I just heated up the whey up to 180F before adding 1/4 cup of white vinegar (I had 4 gallons of whey). It only made a little separation. So i heated up the whey again waited until it was bubbling and almost boiling then added more vinegar, then voila! So maybe just heat up your whey up to almost boiling then add your lemon juice or vinegar the next time. Hope this will help you like you help us! ❤

I just made (and failed) a batch of ricotta. First batch did not curdle at ALL. Second batch I figured out that my milk temperature was waaaayyy too low. You can try getting your milk a bit hotter. Just before the boiling point. Should see lots of steam but no bubbles. Your curd yield will be much higher. Also curious how you use up your whey??? I just dump mine on the hydrangeas, but I'm sure there's a better use 😆

Hi, thanks so much for the free sourdough ebook. I was reading through & I want to make your pizza dough. I have some starter in the fridge for a while.

Thanks again! ☺️☺️❤️your channel!!!

[@thesewinggarden7311]

No, don’t start over!! It should be just fine. I’ve had mine in the fridge for a month sometimes and it came back to life and I think Lisa would say the same. Watch her sourdough videos from her blog or on KZbin. She also has Q &A’s which will help you. If you have that grey “hooch” on top of your starter, many people stir that back in to the starter. I skim it off and get rid of it, stir the starter and feed it. Hope that helps!
