Ricotta cheescake is much lighter opposed to the American classic.  To make this cheescake spectacular, you should use the freshest ricotta you can find (it is worth a trip to the local farmer's market).  The fresh ricotta gives the cheesecake a softer texture so that it melts in your mouth. This recipe highlights the flavor of the ricotta by keeping other flavors to a minimum- a little lemon is all you need.
