Ricotta Toast With Jam Recipes

WHIPPED RICOTTA TOAST WITH QUICK PEACH-RASPBERRY JAM

Steps:

• For the jam: Combine the peaches, sugar and lemon juice in a nonreactive medium saucepan and bring to a boil over high heat, stirring occasionally. Reduce the heat and simmer, mashing the peaches occasionally with a potato masher, until the mixture thickens and sticks to a spoon, about 20 minutes.
• Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the raspberries. Let cool to room temperature, stirring occasionally. Transfer the jam to a nonreactive container with a lid and refrigerate until ready to use. The jam will keep in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.
• For the toast: Combine the ricotta, cream, sugar and lemon zest in a bowl and whisk until light and creamy.
• Slice the toasts on the diagonal and add a dollop of the whipped ricotta to each piece; use the back of a spoon to smear the ricotta across the toast, making a little trough and leaving a big mound on one end. Spoon some of the jam into the trough and drizzle with honey. Serve immediately.

RICOTTA TOAST FOR EVERY SEASON RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Whip the ricotta: Add the ricotta, the olive oil, and 1 tablespoon heavy cream to the bowl of a food processor and blend on high speed for 1-2 minutes, scraping down the sides of the bowl as necessary, until the mixture is completely smooth. If the mixture is too thick, add another tablespoon of heavy cream to reach your desired consistency. The whipped ricotta will keep in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Before using to make the toasts, transfer the ricotta to a piping bag and cut an opening about ½ inch from the tip. You should have about 3⅓ cups.
• Toast the bread: Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C).
• Arrange the sourdough on a 9 x 13-inch (22x33 cm) baking sheet and generously drizzle with the olive oil. Toast for 12-14 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden and crusty.
• Make the winter citrus toast: Preheat the oven to 500˚F(260˚C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Arrange the orange and blood orange on the prepared baking sheet and sprinkle with the demerara sugar. Broil for 8-10 minutes, or until the oranges are caramelized and charred in some places.
• Pipe the whipped ricotta onto a slice of toasted sourdough. Top with the caramelized oranges, drizzle with the pomegranate molasses, if using, and garnish with pomegranate seeds, mint leaves, a drizzle of olive oil, and a sprinkle of flaky salt.
• Make the spring greens ricotta toast: add the arugula, herbs, walnuts, lemon juice, salt, and olive oil to a food processor. Blend until smooth, 1-2 minutes, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed. Add the water, 1 tablespoon at a time, to thin the pesto to your desired consistency.
• Pipe the whipped ricotta onto a slice of toasted sourdough. Top with the peas, radish, and pesto. Garnish with more fresh herbs, a drizzle of olive oil, and a sprinkle of flaky salt and black pepper.
• Make the summer berry ricotta toast: in a medium bowl, combine the berries, balsamic vinegar, sugar, vanilla, salt, and black pepper. Stir to coat the berries well, then let macerate for 30 minutes, until the berries release some of their juices.
• Pipe the whipped ricotta onto a slice of toasted sourdough. Spoon the macerated berries and some of their juices on top. Garnish a drizzle of balsamic glaze and basil leaves.
• To make the fall ricotta toast, pipe the whipped ricotta onto a slice of toasted sourdough. Top with the sliced pear, honey, and thyme and garnish with flaky salt and black pepper.
• Enjoy!
