Whipped Ricotta Toast With Quick Peach Raspberry Jam Recipes

Steps:

• For the jam: Combine the peaches, sugar and lemon juice in a nonreactive medium saucepan and bring to a boil over high heat, stirring occasionally. Reduce the heat and simmer, mashing the peaches occasionally with a potato masher, until the mixture thickens and sticks to a spoon, about 20 minutes.
• Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the raspberries. Let cool to room temperature, stirring occasionally. Transfer the jam to a nonreactive container with a lid and refrigerate until ready to use. The jam will keep in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.
• For the toast: Combine the ricotta, cream, sugar and lemon zest in a bowl and whisk until light and creamy.
• Slice the toasts on the diagonal and add a dollop of the whipped ricotta to each piece; use the back of a spoon to smear the ricotta across the toast, making a little trough and leaving a big mound on one end. Spoon some of the jam into the trough and drizzle with honey. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Cover the toast with a generous portion of Homemade Ricotta and top with the Berry Quick Jam.
• Heat the milk and cream in a medium pot over medium heat until just bubbling. Remove from the heat and stir in the lemon juice and salt. Wait until the milk begins to curdle, 3 to 5 minutes; do not stir again. Strain through cheesecloth and let sit for 1 hour over a colander to drain completely. Store in the refrigerator.
• Combine the strawberries, raspberries, sugar, lemon zest and juice and vanilla beans in a medium pot over medium heat. Cook until the syrup sticks to a metal spoon, about 20 minutes, stirring every now and then. Stir in the vinegar and remove from the heat. Pour into clean jars, close and bring to room temperature (or use an ice bath to speed this up). Keep in the fridge for up to 2 weeks.
