Feeling maybe a little sappy, so how about a post?

I'm Ellie! When you inquire about booking a or other catering event I'm the one who emails with you and meets you for a tasting. I also work many of our events, and on this cloudy morning I'm reveling in the gorgeous colors of these peppers and onions for our Kaleidoscope wood-fired pizza.

When you hire Forno Bova for your special event, you truly are supporting a family business. My youngest is napping on my back while I prep for tomorrow's wedding, and my two oldest are in camp today thanks to the money I bring in with this amazing job. ❤️ So if you have a wedding coming up, or your event already passed, or you ever bought a pie from us when we got our start at food truck events... Thank you, thank you, thank you.

Here's how Forno Bova celebrates

Tony tossed the broccoli in olive oil and slivered garlic before crowning the pepperoni pizza with it! We also had some hot honey so Ellie drizzled some on her slice 😍 Even the grandkids tried this one!

One of the best things on our antipasto platter. Your guests will absolutely love this. We sometimes top it with Chef’s spicy chili jelly.

Ricotta Infornata for the Big Game

1 Basket of Fresh Ricotta
1 Jelly, Chutney, or Honey of your choosing

Background of Ricotta Infornata: Over the past 15 years, Dave and I have had the honor of working with so many different creameries in Italy and each one seems to have their own take on ricotta. The one thing you can always count on is the line of people that arrive each day looking for the freshly recooked (ricotta) whey! As the customers leave with their fresh, warm, basket of ricotta a quick survey of the parking lot and you will notice that no one is in a hurry to leave. A closer look and you will see many of the drivers, spoon in hand, scooping out the pillowy ricotta and eating it straight from the basket, eyes closed to savor the delicious treat! Because the current situation won’t allow for this from our own creamery, we thought we would share one our other favorite warm ricotta recipes.

Ricotta Infornata (from the oven) or Tricotta (three times cooked) as it is sometimes called is a perfect treat for the Big Game or anytime you need to bring a fun dish for sharing. It is also a great dish for the vegetarian in your life or something different for those of you following the high protein diets. Typically done in collaboration with the local pizzerias, Ricotta Infornata is a way for Italian cheesemakers to repurpose their day old fresh ricotta. Though in Italy they fire the ovens up has hot as possible to get a dark char on the ricotta, we find that most of our American friends prefer a golden crust.

Process Instructions:

1. Preheat oven to the hottest baking temperature possible with your oven (typically between 500-550F for home ovens). Convection should be used if available.
2. Flip a basket of Caputo Brothers Creamery fresh ricotta out onto a baking sheet.
3. Bake in oven for 30-45 minutes until golden brown, turning halfway through cooking for even coverage.
4. Remove from baking sheet and place on serving dish.
5. Cover with topping of choice. We love to use a savory chutney, spicy honey, or of course, my Mom’s famous pepper jelly.
