Steam Combi Recipe: Sous Vide Ricotta

This method of using your steam ovens Sous Vide mode to make Ricotta cheese is so easy you will never buy it again!
If your steam oven doesnt have a Sous Vide mode, then choose steam and the closest temperature available.

METHOD 

1. Set oven to Sous Vide 78C and allow the oven to come up to temperature
2. Stir all ingredients into a dish or bowl 
3. Place in oven and cook for 1 hour
4. Remove from oven, and allow to cool slightly, then drain into a colander through 2 layers of cheesecloth
5. After 10 minutes hang the cheesecloth off the edge of the colander so that the cheese is not sitting in any liquid.
6. Strain 10-15 minutes more.  If you require a drier Ricotta, hang for longer. 
7. Makes approximately 200g (just less than a cup) of Ricotta 
8. For a larger quantity simply increase all ingredients equally but depending on the volume it may take a little longer for the curds to form.
