Hey @dirtmudd

Turned a half cup of ricotta into enough for four or so, pinching and spooning stuff worked out pretty good tonight after the spaghetti.

Will try the orange when I get back Mon. and make a whole bowl of the cream.

I love those things so much I don't care if they have the chips or not. 

 

I was set back long ago when I found out it was filled with Ricotta cheese, I had them since I was a little kid and always thought of them as a dessert, not cheese. But it didn't stop me.

Me too, I'd eaten them for years before I found out they were cheese, didn't stop me. 

My in-laws clued me in on that like my Aunt Martha ruined Cheerwine for me when she told me it tasted like cough syrup... I've only had one of those since then and I could not finish it because what she said stuck with me.

Did you hear about the Italian chef who died? He pasta way! Doctors cannoli do so much!

I'm not even sure what that is, French not Italian but do love the Italian desserts.

Italian cheese cake made with ricotta cheese...chocolate and maraschino cherries...

 

Varies from region to region..

 

And if you think cannoli's  are good..

 

You would sell a limb or two.. For some cassata... 

 

It's a Easter mainstay...

I have never tried one, I might like it even though I don't like cheesecake?  I do like all the Italian cookies and pastries, I am glad that place is not around here.

Have gone to this place since I was a little kid, Dirtmudd would love it, everything is good, they opened in 1905.

 

Love a good eclair also.

Classic. Absolutely classic. Vaguely remember it, and a snowball place that always has a line out the door. Great after a po-boy at R&O’s on the Lakefront. But you got Dockside in Picayune at least Dtel.
