The holiday season has come and gone, but there are still plenty of opportunities for entertaining a crowd before the snow melts! Homemade crackers and ricotta cheese dip are a surefire way to impress your friends, no matter the occasion. Best of all, no special cheesemaking equipment is needed: just a strainer and a bit of cheese cloth will do the trick.

My favorite is pink Himalayan sea salt and dehydrated minced garlic. It’s like the best part of an everything bagel.
