Product Insights
Ricotta is a frozen Italian cheese made primarily from whey, sold in a 250 g pot by Casa Azzura. It belongs to the Milk and dairy products / Cheese group, carries a Nutri-Score of B indicating a relatively favorable nutritional profile with low salt (0.23 g per 100 g), low sugars (2.9 g per 100 g) and 8.5 g of protein per 100 g, but it also contains moderate saturated fat (3.6 g per 100 g).
