FYI that's not ricotta. Ricotta is made by cooking the leftover whey from making another cheese like mozzarella. It literally means re-cooked. What you made would be a farmer's cheese (or queso blanco or any of another traditions of vinegar cheese) since it uses vinegar instead of rennet.

FYI this IS ricotta. It is at its earliest historically made with the whey left over from curdling milk to make another cheese, yes, but the process of adding some whole milk and vinegar to curdle out the remaining curds from the buttermilk for ricotta remains the same as it has since then. However, it is *also* made with straight whole milk, especially in the United States, and has for at least hundreds of years elsewhere in the world, as well, though it no longer lives up to the original meaning of the name "ricotta" derived from "ricocta" under that situation, as you did accurately note.

let me make clear the situation here.. trust me i am italian and i live in italy: they are doing moretum an ancient roman pesto, they do rigth the cheese and the recipe of pasta (not the shape)but they just use wrong word.. nick horvath is rigth this is not ricotta, ricotta is made in a very different way but on the other hand they dont need ricotta for moretum but just a fresh cheese so they do what they can do.. other exemple is they keep say: noodles but we don't have noodles in tradictional italian oman stuff, they are a tipe of pasta from asia, we use "trofie" whit pesto and the roman use moretum on bread. but they use a right recipe for make trofie, (water salt and flour), for the fresh long pasta we don't use water but only eggs and flour.. and the word ricotta in Italian is normally used, it means "cooked again" and obviously it is also the name of the cheese made with whey .. the word "ricocta" used by kain yusanagi does not exist in Italian .. if I could have recommended them I would have made him a mortar in Carrara marble (already extracted by the Romans) and I would have made him prepare trofie with Genoese pesto .. but they don't have the right ingredients, like cheese .. even the pine nuts are wrong, we only use those of maritime pines .. but even with the wrong ingredients it made more sense than eating a Roman sauce with Asian pasta .. in any case they are an entertainment channel they are not an experimental archeology laboratory or an Italo-Roman culture course .. they often do things a little badly with poor results, but it's part of their trademark .. they have to give an idea of history and achievements .. and let you spend 15 interesting minutes, Merry Christmas or maybe I should wish you a good NATALIS SOLIS INVICTI ? big hug

@@alexsfamily4166 That's because it's from the original latin, not later italian, that the word ricocta comes from, from which the name ricotta originates from. Additionally, water and flour is a common noodle base as well as eggs and flour (or a combination of all three), and was historically used in Europe when noodles were first introduced to it from the original Greek cultures in trade, once again before Italy even *was* Italy, DEFINITELY before the Arabic conquest of the peninsula that introduced many dried and varied flavour pasta dishes and made macaroni popular, and even before Rome ever became the great Roman Empire as we commonly know of it, independently of Asia where, in China at least, noodles have been around for at least four millenia (Lajie archeological site had a preserved bowl of noodles, dating from the Xia Dynasty, so they undoubtedly existed before then even). In short, take your Italian cuisine supremacy and shove it in a cannelloni. Signed, a cook who also bothers to know his food history.

Bright Soul not funny didn't laugh

Pesto is not of Roman origin. It originates in Genoa, the capital city of Liguria. Traditional modern pesto only uses 4 ingredients: olive oil, basil, pine nuts, and parmigiano-reggiano. Some people add 1 garlic clove, but is not really traditional. No salt is needed because the parmigiano-reggiano is very salty. In the island of Sardinia they use pecorino sardo instead of the parmigiano-reggiano. The pecorino sardo is made from sheep's milk, which gives pesto a more creamy texture. Personally, I like to use pecorino romano and parmigiano reggiano, both. 8:00 What you have there are curds (the fats from the milk), not ricotta. Ricotta means "cooked again", for which you need to re-cook the whey that was taken away after separating the whey from the curds. 12:30 Also, ricotta is not a cheese because is made from the whey, cheese is made with the curds (the fat from the milk).

You're Minneapolis based?! That's awesome! ~ Minnesota born and raised living in uptown.

I think what you are doing is awesome and you should keep going and doing what you love

Squirrels making pesto with all the pine nuts they find before we can get to them!

Watching the techniques and technology from previous episodes just to make pesto... Its all coming together ;)

An interesting video. Thanks for sharing it.

Perfect timing - now we can make this for Christmas and the Super Bowl!

You should look into 'case hardening' if you want your iron tools to be harder (and, not deform/dull when working with them). It basically converts the surface of iron tools to high carbon steel which can be tempered.

never heard of using a fresh cheese in pesto, might try next time. definitely worth the work involved to use a mortar and pestle to cream the basil. unlike what you get using a machine to shred it.

That bread looks like it needs to see a Dr for a lumpectomy. In the meantime considering changing your channel name in to How To Be a Minnesotan because I appreciate all the work you guys put into these projects. You are showing the true Minnesotan spirit!

They make a really great duo.

Love you’re videos keep going

the large rock you used grinded out to make the mortar and pestle was probable iron pyrite because it let of a small spark at 4:20

I took the easy way out, I got a limestone mortar and pestle at a gas station for somewhere around $18. Yeah, I have no idea what it was doing at a gas station, but it's quality and I bought it.

God l love this channel so much it makes me want to do all this stuff literally I already planted my third closet garden

This was interesting, thanks! I noticed you didn't mention this, but catnip has a soporific effect on some people, and it can make you VERY sleepy, you shouldn't drive if you're susceptible to it and you've had some. It's often used in sleepy teas. If you're going to use catnip in cooking, make sure it doesn't make you sleepy or account for having a nap afterward.

Watching this vid, makes me question if its footage or some kind of visualization machine recording, so many unique ways of presenting a process besides what a store and your kitchen items has to look like. This is the kind of originality of format presentation that deserves to be stored and spread online for being so specific and standing out.

Thanks for this video

For working with stone it’s been shown that used a controlled thermal shock to put holes into and through rocks. I’m betting it’s not as easy as that sounds or anywhere near as safe. But it’s how the made stone maces with the hole in the stone. Yep might be interesting to try to make A mortar using that technique.

The way you make that noodles reminded me of my mom's way of making shpetzly not certain if I'm spelling that correctly my mother learned it from her mother and that's what your noodles remind me of except she would pinch them at a certain length.

Beechnuts and maplekeys will work too. Its hard to get seed out of the husk though with maplekeys.

I really enjoyed your video I came over from Max's channel. 😘

Of course, Pesto is named after the other part of the Mortar, and Pestle.

that waterfall is really cool when it fully freezes to the point where you can walk through without getting wet

yes I love the food history and ahistorical builds!

Last time I was this early the reset wasn’t a thing

In Germany we call the sandy grit "Campingsalz", which translates to "camping salt". XD

Probably in roman time they would have used pine nuts from domestic pine, the plant and its nut is the most common in italy to this day especially because it grows outside of cold aereas which aren't the most of Italy

Wow wow wow, first you said that this show if you wanna call it where you try to make everything from complete scratch,but now its about making food and the tools that help you make it.

Oh hey! I used to live near Minnehaha falls!

seeing ice from south africa is always a trip

A really great video as always, but, as an italian, I was triggered by the way you cooked the tortellini in the microwave lol, they could be made theoretically boiled, as pasta or noodles.

I saw the grit problem coming. I wonder how they broke in a mortar so that wouldn't be a problem.

Thank you sir
