MIXED TOMATO SALSA CROSTINI
Steps:
- Preheat a broiler, oven or grill to medium-high heat.
- Toast the bread until lightly golden brown on both sides-the bread should be crisp but still tender on the inside, not brittle. Remove and drizzle with extra-virgin olive oil and season with salt.
- Combine the tomatoes, olive oil, vinegar, honey and oregano in a medium bowl and season with salt and pepper. Gently toss in the queso fresco. Let the relish sit at room temperature for at least 15 minutes before serving. Top the bread with the relish and serve.
PASTA WITH CARAMELIZED PEPPERS, ANCHOVIES AND RICOTTA
Caramelized slivers of soft bell peppers and whole cloves of garlic serve as the sweet vegetable-based sauce for this summery pasta. The ricotta gives everything creaminess and body, while herbs and scallions lend freshness, and anchovies depth. If you have an open bottle of wine on hand, you can add a splash to deglaze the tasty browned bits on the bottom of the pan. But don't bother opening something new: A little water or dry vermouth does the trick nearly as well.

Steps:
- Bring a large pot of heavily salted water to a boil. Add the pasta and cook, according to package instructions, until the pasta is just al dente.
- As pasta cooks, heat a large sauté pan over medium-high, and add 3 tablespoons olive oil. When the oil is hot, add the anchovies and rosemary, and sauté until the anchovies start to dissolve, about 1 minute. Add the garlic and red-pepper flakes, and sauté until the garlic turns pale golden in spots, about 1 to 2 minutes.
- Add the bell peppers and a large pinch of salt to the pan, and sauté until the bell peppers are very soft and well caramelized, 10 to 15 minutes, lowering the heat if the peppers start becoming too dark. Add the wine (or water) and the butter, and sauté, scraping up the browned bits on the bottom of the pan. Taste and season with lemon juice and more salt as needed.
- Put 1/4 cup ricotta and the scallions in a large serving bowl, and season aggressively with black pepper.
- Use a coffee mug or measuring cup to scoop about 1/2 cup pasta water from the pot. Drain the pasta, then add it to the bowl with the ricotta and scallions, tossing well. Add the bell pepper mixture and the herbs, and toss well, adding a splash or two of pasta water if the mixture looks dry. Taste and season with more salt if needed.
- Spoon pasta into bowls, and top with dollops of the remaining 1/4 cup ricotta, a drizzle of oil and a little Parmesan, if you like. Shower torn herb leaves over all.
