ma_rri_na, and what more popularly can replace cheese - plain cottage cheese, ricotta?
Brochioto is so to speak a specific product of Italians Corsica like rikotata, but, in contrast, is made from whey. Not salty cheese. So it can be replaced with a plain cottage cheese, ricotta - it is maznichka of curd, but is more watery. I'm doing them with a mixture of cream cheese and fresh cheese without salt so on. Fresh cheese that resembles mozzarella. Became a sweet little salty, but aromatic.
I I understand brochio is more local product, so it is good to know how to be replaced :) For rikotata - the one I take quite dry, there is a *light* version, so guess would be appropriate.
And while that Corsica is a French Territorial kitchen is rather Italian and the language also (see. Corsican language). That's why Fiadone spoken out as an Italian word. A Brochiu really is a local product, replace with ricotta.
