Mascarpone Cheese

Categories: Food | Dairy | Food & Drink
  • Mascarpone cheese is a soft, white triple-cream Italian cream cheese made from crème fraîche and tartaric acid. It is mild in flavor and buttermilk is used in some recipes.
  • Culinary Cousins

    Ricotta cheese is made in a similar way, but uses milk instead of cream and the whey instead of the cheese curds. American cream cheese is a combination of milk and cream and tends to be thicker than mascarpone.
  • Culinary Uses

    Mascarpone is an ingredient in tiramisu and a filling in desserts such as cheesecake. It can be used in pasta sauces, soups, risotto or as the base for ice cream.
