Slow Baked Savory Ricotta Pudding Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees and butter a 9-inch baking dish. Whisk together the eggs, egg yolk and ricotta in a mixing bowl. Whisk in the cream, milk, 1 teaspoon thyme, salt and pepper. The mixture will be a little lumpy.
• Pour into the baking dish. Sprinkle the top with the chile and remaining 1/2 teaspoon thyme. Cover the dish with foil and place it in a roasting pan. Add enough tepid water to come halfway up the sides of the baking dish. Bake until the custard is just set, about 1 1/2 hours.

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 325°F. Spray a 2-quart soufflé dish or an 8- or 9-inch cheesecake pan with oil, and dust with 3 tablespoons of the Parmesan cheese. Combine the remaining ingredients, including the remaining Par-mesan, in a bowl, and mix until well blended. Pour into the prepared pan and bake until a tester inserted in the center comes out with a bit of set batter clinging to it, about 1 hour and 15 minutes. Cool to warm room temperature, 30 minutes to 1 hour. Cover with a serving plate, invert and shake slightly to release the pudding, and remove the baking pan. Slice to serve.From Homemade In A Hurry.
