Whipped Ricotta Ingredients

Method

Whipped Ricotta Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Ricotta

    In a mixing bowl, add the ricotta cheese. Use a fork or a hand mixer to whip the ricotta until it is smooth and creamy.

  2. 2

    Mix in Flavorings

    Add the fig vin cotto, extra virgin olive oil, Sicilian oregano, and sea salt to the whipped ricotta. Continue to mix until all ingredients are well incorporated and the mixture is light and fluffy.

  3. 3

    Taste and Adjust

    Taste the whipped ricotta and adjust the seasoning with additional sea salt if needed.

  4. 4

    Grill the Bread

    While mixing the ricotta, preheat a grill or grill pan over medium heat. Grill the slices of country bread for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown and have grill marks.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Spread the whipped ricotta generously onto the grilled country bread slices. Drizzle with extra olive oil and serve immediately.
