Whipped Ricotta
- 1 cup Ricotta cheese
- 2 tablespoon Grana Padano cheese
- 1 teaspoon plus ½ teaspoon white truffle oil separated
- 1 tablespoon parsley finely chopped
- ¼ teaspoon salt
Garlic Bread
- 1 baguette
- 2 tablespoon melted salted butter
- 2 garlic cloves finely minced
- 1 teaspoon white truffle oil
- salt for finishing
- 1 tablespoon Grana Padano for finishing
Whipped Ricotta
Add Ricotta cheese, 2 tablespoons of Grana Padano cheese, 1 teaspoon of white truffle oil, and ¼ teaspoon of salt to food processor and whip until creamy. It will take approximately 30-60 seconds. It comes together very quickly.
Put whipped Ricotta in small dipping bowl and drizzle ½ teaspoon white truffle oil on top. Top with chopped parsley as garnish.
Garlic Bread
Preheat oven to broil. Or turn grill to medium high heat.
Cut baguette (or bread of choice) into 8 pieces and set aside.
Melt 2 tablespoons of butter in the microwave for 15-30 seconds. Add minced garlic and 1 teaspoon of white truffle oil to melted butter.
With a pastry brush or a small spatula, spread melted garlic butter on to each piece of bread.
Place bread on baking sheet with buttered side up and broil until edges are browned to taste (approximately 2 minutes). [Grilling takes a similar amount of time. To grill, place bread on grill with the buttered side up and turn after 1 minute so that buttered side is down. Check for browning after an additional minute and remove when grill marks appear on bread.]
Place garlic bread on serving plate and sprinkle 1 tablespoon of Grana Padano over the garlic bread. Finish with a light dusting of salt from a salt shaker.
Serve with whipped Ricotta on the side and enjoy!
