Applewood Smoked Ricotta
A Signature Cheese by Crooked Face Creamery
Cold-smoked over organic, locally sourced applewood and made with rich whole milk from registered Jersey cows, this ricotta is fresh and light, yet deeply creamy and flavorful. Seasoned with just a touch of salt, it carries a warm, savory smokiness that’s both comforting and unforgettable.
Here’s how I like to describe it:
"I call this cheese 'Up North' because of the feeling it brings me — like sitting around a campfire at Moosehead Lake, laughing with family under the stars. One bite, and I’m transported back to those golden moments, the smoky aroma filling the air and my heart. It’s a truly original cheese you won’t find anywhere else."
— Amy
Designed to be savored by the spoonful or on a board, but just as incredible spread over fresh bread, tossed with greens, melted onto wood-fired pizza, or stirred into your favorite pasta. Drizzle with a little olive oil, or add a touch of Sriracha for a spicy kick that will send your taste buds soaring.
Wonderful sweetish cheese with just a little hint of smoke,,nothing too intense, subtle. Easily spreads on crackers or bread. So delicious. Great for gifts to cheese lovers.
I love to add this to avocado toast and pasta and on top of pizza.. I keep extra rounds of ricotta in my freezer as emergency back-ups!
So very excited that they offer shipping!
Absolutely loved this cheese. The smoked taste evident throughout, and the ricotta itself was high-quality. I lived in Italy for 5 years and ate my fair share of ricotta while there, and this was on par with cheese I had over there. I used this smoked ricotta in salads, pasta, and just to snack on. It was absolutely delicious! But what also stood out was the care and customer service! Amy reached out to confirm that it was ok to delay my shipment slightly so that the cheese wouldn't get stuck in nationwide shipping delays that were occurring amidst an east coast heat wave. This kind of care for both the quality of the cheese itself and the customer experience really stood out to me, and I'm so grateful! The cheese was delicious and I will definitely be ordering again (but maybe in cooler weather next time!).
