How to Store - Leftover whipped ricotta can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. However, it’s best eaten the same day it’s made.
If the cream cheese is too cold, you'll need to microwave it for a few seconds.
Too thick - Add more olive oil and beat.
Too runny - Add more ricotta and beat.
Add any garnishes you like.
