Ricotta Creme

How do you make this so it isn't nasty? When I made it it was all gritty and not at all pleasing to eat.

maybe throw it in the blender and do it smoothie style?

I use an electric hand mixer for a minute or two on it. I make 4 days worth and mix it at once.

What worked for me was to make sure I had enough liquid in the form of flavoring, for example, vanilla, almond, banana flavorings, to which I would add a bit of cocoa powder and Equal packets. With enough liquid flavoring, about a half teaspoon or more, just stirring with a spoon made it smooth and blended enough. Of course, everyone's taste is different. I used to hate Ricotta plain, because the consistency bothered me, but flavoring and stirring made it yummy for me. Another idea is to just add the samne flavorings to NF plain yoghurt, which, as I understand it, is allowed with updated food lists. Now to that, I add equals and a teaspoon of, get this, SF dry jello powder, orange is my favorite, but do mix well.

Thanks everyone. I'll try again. I already mix a packett of dry SF jello to a quart of NF yogurt to flavor it.
