Ricotta Crostini
serves 2-4
Garlicky, toasted bread is a delicious medium for creamy ricotta. Of course just about any cheese would work here -- though you'd probably want to put firmer cheeses under the broiler for a couple of minutes to melt them.
1 clove garlic, peeled and halved
salt and pepper
2 tablespoons olive oil
6-8 thick slices good-quality bread
1 cup of ricotta cheese
prep: 10 minutes
total: 15 minutes
1. Toast the bread until crusty but still a little soft in the center. Rub the garlic clove on one side of each of the slices. Drizzle them with a little olive oil.
2. Spread the ricotta over the toast. Finish the crostini with a little salt and a drizzle of olive oil.
