Hi! Is the bread still frozen or is it defrosted when you use it? And is this kind of ricotta hard to find? I’m hoping to make this recipe for my book group next week! Thank you!
Hi Kara! The bread was sat out at room temperature for 1 hour and I can usually find ricotta salata at Whole Foods. I hope your book club loves it as much as we do! Thanks for the questions. #ricottasalata #wholefoods
