RICOTTA-BRUSSELS SPROUTS CROSTINI
Steps:
- Mix 3 tablespoons olive oil, 2 teaspoons dried oregano and a pinch of salt. Brush on 1 sliced baguette, then toast in a 350 degrees F oven, 6 to 8 minutes. Working in batches, deep-fry 3 cups Brussels sprout leaves in 375 degrees F canola oil until light brown, 30 seconds to 1 minute. Drain on paper towels and season with salt. Spread the crostini with ricotta, season with salt and pepper and top with the fried Brussels sprout leaves and shredded parmesan. Sprinkle with red wine vinegar, if desired.
FRESH RICOTTA CROSTINI
Steps:
- Lay three layers of cheesecloth over a colander.
- Add the milk to a large heavy pot and place over medium-high heat. Stir in the lemon juice and salt and heat until an instant-read thermometer reaches 175 degrees F. The milk will begin to just bubble and start to steam. At this temperature you'll begin to see the curds separate from the whey. Be mindful of over stirring the ricotta while the curds are forming, you don't want to make your ricotta stiff. Let it sit for 5 minutes undisturbed and you will be left with a very creamy and pleasant finished result.
- Gently remove the curds from the pot to the colander. Use the side of the cheesecloth to very gently release some of the liquid. Tie up the curds using butcher's twine and let drain for 5 to 10 minutes. Remove from the cheesecloth and place in a bowl. Serve warm on toasted bread with lemon zest and a drizzle of extra-virgin olive oil.
PEA AND RICOTTA CROSTINI
Steps:
- Preheat a grill over medium-low. Add the baguette slices and grill on both sides until toasted. Remove from the grill and rub the toasts with the garlic clove (discard clove). Drizzle lightly with the chili oil. Set the toasts aside.
- If using fresh peas, bring a small pot of water to a boil. Add the peas and blanch, about 1 minute. Then pour onto a sheet tray lined with a clean kitchen towel and allow to cool. If using frozen peas, add to a strainer and rinse under warm water to thaw, then set aside.
- Meanwhile, in a medium bowl, combine the ricotta, goat cheese, coarsely grated Parmesan, minced garlic, lemon zest and a pinch sea salt. Stir to combine. Add the peas and stir with a wooden spoon, lightly mashing the peas with the back of the spoon.
- To assemble, spoon the cheese and pea mixture onto the toasts, top with extra Parmesan to garnish, and serve.
CROSTINI WITH SWEET RICOTTA, HONEY AND TOASTED HAZELNUTS
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. Dollop some ricotta on each slice of toast. Drizzle a little honey over all, and then zest the orange over the tops. Scatter the hazelnuts on top, put a wedge of fruit on each toast and finish with another drizzle of honey.
