Time 10m

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 cup whole milk ricotta (the freshest you can get)
2 Tablespoon fresh mint (roughly chopped)
1 teaspoon fresh parsley (finely chopped)
1/2 teaspoon lemon zest
1 Tablespoon olive oil (additional for baguette slices)
3 teaspoons honey
Generous pinch of sea salt (to taste)
Freshly ground black pepper (to taste)
1 Baguette (sliced, if using)

Steps:

  • Place the ricotta in a small mixing bowl. Using a hand mixer with a whisk attachment or beaters, whisk ricotta for 2 minutes until it's smooth and creamy; you may still see tiny bumps of ricotta, this is ok. Place the whipped ricotta in a serving bowl or spread on a plate.
  • In a separate bowl, stir together the mint, parsley, lemon zest, olive oil, honey, and salt. Pour the herb and honey mixture on top of the whipped ricotta. Top with freshly ground black pepper as desired. Serve with grilled baguette slices, crackers, or vegetables.
