| Description | Buffalo ricotta produced with the whey remaining after the production of Borgoluce buffalo mozzarella |
|---|---|
| Appearance | It is white in colour, firm yet soft, without being overly dry |
| Taste | Sweet, delicate, not very savoury, with intense milky notes |
| Maturing | Not expected |
| Curiosity | It is produced exclusively with the whey obtained after processing the mozzarella, the supply chain is very short: the transformation of the milk takes place in the own dairy next to the stable. The processing is also completely traditional: no enzymes are used, but whey starter |
| Our selection | Borgoluce is a company that has made eco-sustainability and biodiversity its mission: 1,220 hectares of pastures, woods, farms, cultivated fields, vineyards, orchards, canals, mills, dairies. An intact environment, owned by the Collalto family since the 12th century |
| Suggestions | Thanks to its texture and delicate flavour, it is perfect for making desserts, including spoon desserts, for example with pears, chocolate and chopped hazelnuts. It is also delicious in savoury dishes, perhaps with basil pesto and confit cherry tomatoes, served in individual portions in a glass. It is best served chilled but not cold |

Why we chose them
Eco-sustainability is a word with many meanings: attention, care, respect for natural resources. At Borgoluce, eco-sustainability is perceived as an
asset. Borgoluce is an estate with 1,220 hectares, held by Collalto family since the XII century. An intact environment made of pastures,
woodlands,
farms, arable fields, vineyards, orchards, canals, mills, dairies. In past, this variety enabled the family to produce everything necessary for daily life.
Today, this tradition remains: it is called biodiversity. Environmental responsibility pervades every activity and is expressed in the use of renewable
sources for the agro-energy production. The energy comes from the by-products of woodlands, animal farms and plantations. Wood is burned by a
biomass boiler, while a biodigester transforms animal dung and cereal silage into biogas, producing the electric energy used in the farm and the
thermal energy that heats the buffalo sheds. Giuliana, Ninni and Caterina Collalto with her mother Trinidad and the husband of Caterina, Ludovico
Giustiniani are committed to increase the value of this land, a unique heritage in Veneto
