Where to find Fresh Ricotta in LA for recipe?

[Food622]

I need to find fresh ricotta (that will then be drained for 24 hours) for a recipe. Where can I find high quality fresh ricotta to make gnocchi in LA? I live in the Hancock Park area, but will travel as far west as Santa Monica if necessary.

Thank You!

From Tasting Table: The mozzarella guys make some fantastic ricotta out of Hawthorne. Sold at Bay cities, Larchmont Larder (I think), and Curious Palate in Culver City

At Mario's in Glendale on Broadway.

There's a stand at the Hollywood & Ivar Sunday Farmer's market that has fresh mozzarella and ricotta. The stand is north of Selma on the west side of the street. Sundays 8:30-2.

Clarification... the market officially closes at 1:00 but about half of the vendors linger until 1:30.

Maybe try Tutto Latte Express at 1233 Vine Street between Fountain and Santa Monica.

Any Italian deli. Bay Cities should have it; Monte Carlo Deli in Burbank definitely has it. Or make your own -- it's not that hard.
