Ricotta Forte
Ricotta forte (strong ricotta) is a very traditional soft cheese of Basilicata and Apulia, in southeastern Italy. It is creamy, spicy and slightly bitter. Its preparation is similar to the Greek cheese called '' kopanisti'': the milk is fermented by bacteria and yeast which contribute to the spicy taste and to the very intense aroma. The aroma is similar to the long-seasoned pecorino. This cheese is typically used on pasta to make the tomato sauce tastier or on the bread with anchovies or in the traditional fried ''panzerotti''''.''
