In a cheesecloth, add the ricotta and press it down (using a weight, which can be anything heavy) to get rid of any excess liquid. You want the ricotta to be as dry as you can. The pressing process should take at least 30 minutes.
In a bowl, add the drained ricotta, Parmigiano Reggiano, salt, egg, and egg yolk. Mix well until combined.
Add the flour and mix until combined.
Using your hands, form balls from the ricotta mix to your desired size. I shape them to be a little smaller than a ping pong ball.
Boil the ricotta balls until they float to the top.
Combine with your desired sauce!
YASSS!
