Ингредиенты

  • 1 lb ricotta cheese
  • 1/4 c. mild honey
  •     (like orange blossom or possibly clover)
  • 1 Tbsp. fresh lemon juice
  •     Grated zest of 1/2 lemon
  •     A drop or possibly 2 of vanilla extract

  • 2 Tbsp. unsalted butter softened
  •     Sugar as needed
  •     Assorted fresh summer fruit
  •     (including ripe raspberries, strawberries, peaches, and nectarines)

Инструкции

  1. In a bowl, combine the ricotta cheese, honey, lemon juice and zest, and vanilla. Stir to blend, then cover and chill.
  2. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Cut the bread on the diagonal into 10 to 12 full slices, each about 1-inch thick. Butter both sides with the soft butter, then lay them on a large baking sheet. Sprinkle the tops with a little sugar, then toast in the oven for 15 min or possibly so, till golden.
  3. While the bread toasts, clean and/or possibly slice the fruit and arrange it in bowls or possibly on a platter. Peel peaches and nectarines, but do not slice them till the last minute. Rinse strawberries, slicing them if necessary. Do not run water over raspberries or possibly they'll get soggy.
  4. To serve, bring everything to the table and let each person assemble their own. Spread the sweetened ricotta thickly over the bread, and arrange the fruit on top. If the fruit isn't perfectly ripe, provide a bit of sugar on the side to sprinkle on and lemon slices to squeeze on the fruit as well.
  5. This recipe yields 4 to 6 servings.
  6. Comments: There's something quite fun and friendly about this, a big tray of fresh sweet toasts, honey-sweetened ricotta cheese, and fresh summer fruit. You just bring everything to the table on separate plates and let everyone assemble their own open-face fruit sandwiches - that is essentially what these are. This is a dessert to be savored in July or possibly August, when the fruit is at its peak and the setting is casual. Serve with glasses of port.
