Can you use ricotta cheese as a cottage cheese substitute?

Sometimes, yes. But they do taste different and their texture is different so the resulting dish will be quite different. I'd experiment first and see if you like the result before you serve it to someone else.


How do you keep ricotta cheese from leaking out of the noodle during cooking?

The ricotta wasn't drained before adding it to your recipe. To avoid the excess moisture, drape a piece of gauze over a bowl and let the edges drape down on the outside of the bowl. Spoon the ricotta cheese into it so the cheese is elevated and the gauze acts as a strainer. If you have a problem keeping the cheese elevated, put a small bowl upside down inside the larger bowl so the ricotta rests on it, letting the moisture drain to the sides. Cover it and put it into the refrigerator overnight, making sure the cheese remains elevated. In the morning, fold up the edges so you have a little package and squeeze out the remaining moisture. The bowl should have a considerable amount in it, which should be drained. Now you can use the ricotta in a recipe without having it leak out of the edges.

Will plain cream cheese be okay as substitute for Mascarpone cheese?

Awesome Cheese Master a.k.a. Kypsta: It really depends. If you are having a really fancy party or having your boss over you should probably get a nice cheese so in this case you would probably need the Mascarpone cheese. If you were having a regular dinner you would just use cream cheese because good cheese is expensive and if you already have cream cheese then you should just use it. If you are making a recipe you should try and get some Mascarpone cheese because usein cream cheese might ruin the recipe. In this situation, if you have enough materials, you might make two of the recipe and make 1 with Mascarpone cheese and 1 with cream cheese. Here is a suggested substitute for Mascarpone which I use and it is hard to tell the difference: (8 ounce) package cream cheese * 1/4 cup heavy whipping cream, * 2 1/2 tablespoons sour cream Do NOT use low or non fat versions.
