Ricotta toasts with pepper salsa

Ricotta toasts with pepper salsa

Pimiento piquillo peppers are small and deliciously sweet. The jarred version makes a fantastic topping for toast, especially once a swirl of creamy cheese gets involved.

Cook’s tip

Cook’s tip, Versatile salsa 

This is a salsa that keeps on giving: toss it through hot or cold pasta with other roasted Med veg, or use to top a baked potato or fill sandwiches or wraps.

And to drink...

Calvet Sancerre Rosé, France. Pair the piquant peppers and creamy ricotta with a chilled glass of this classically light, fresh and bright rosé.
