Whipped Ricotta

Charred Lemon Agrodolce

Grilled Focaccia

Spring Onions

Method

Whipped Ricotta

  1. 1

    Whip the Ricotta

    In a mixing bowl, combine the ricotta cheese, heavy cream, salt, and black pepper. Using an electric mixer, whip the mixture on medium speed until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes. Set aside.

Charred Lemon Agrodolce

  1. 2

    Prepare the Agrodolce

    Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Cut the lemons in half and sprinkle the cut sides with sugar. Place the lemons cut side down on the grill and char for about 3-4 minutes until caramelized. Remove from the grill and let cool slightly.

  2. 3

    Make the Dressing

    In a small bowl, combine the charred lemon juice (squeezed out from the grilled lemons), red wine vinegar, and olive oil. Mix well and season with salt. Set aside.

Grilled Focaccia

  1. 4

    Grill the Focaccia

    Brush the focaccia bread with olive oil and sprinkle with fresh rosemary and salt. Place on the grill for about 2-3 minutes on each side or until grill marks appear and the bread is warm and crispy. Remove from the grill and cut into triangles.

Spring Onions

  1. 5

    Grill the Spring Onions

    Toss the spring onions with olive oil and season with salt. Grill the onions for about 2-3 minutes until they are slightly charred and tender. Remove from the grill and slice them in half lengthwise.
