Whipped Ricotta

Golden Raisin & Pine Nut Agrodolce

Grilled Bread

Method

Whipped Ricotta

  1. 1

    Prepare the Ricotta

    In a mixing bowl, combine the ricotta cheese, heavy cream, salt, and black pepper.

  2. 2

    Whip the Mixture

    Using a hand mixer or a food processor, blend the mixture on medium speed until smooth and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.

  3. 3

    Taste and Adjust

    Taste the whipped ricotta and adjust seasoning with additional salt or pepper if desired.

Golden Raisin & Pine Nut Agrodolce

  1. 4

    Toast the Pine Nuts

    In a dry skillet over medium heat, toast the pine nuts until golden and fragrant, about 3-5 minutes. Stir frequently to prevent burning.

  2. 5

    Cook the Agrodolce

    In a saucepan over medium heat, combine the golden raisins, red wine vinegar, honey, olive oil, and salt. Bring to a simmer.

  3. 6

    Add the Pine Nuts

    After 5 minutes of simmering, add the toasted pine nuts and fresh thyme leaves. Stir well and cook for another 2-3 minutes.

  4. 7

    Cool the Agrodolce

    Remove from heat and let the agrodolce cool to room temperature.

Grilled Bread

  1. 8

    Prepare the Bread

    Slice the baguette or ciabatta loaf into 1-inch thick slices.

  2. 9

    Brush with Olive Oil

    Brush both sides of each slice with olive oil.

  3. 10

    Grill the Bread

    Heat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Grill the bread slices for about 2-3 minutes on each side, until grill marks appear and the bread is toasted.
