Notes
When toasting your sourdough, be sure to lightly toast it so the crust doesn’t become too hard to eat. Besides a toaster, you could also toast it in a skillet or in the oven. To toast in a skillet, lightly brush both sides with extra virgin olive oil, then toast in a heated pan over medium heat for 1-2 minutes per side. You could also place the oiled toast in the oven at 400°F for 5 minutes.
If your ricotta is too watery, strain it through cheesecloth before using it for the best consistency.
For a sweeter strawberry ricotta toast, you can add a drizzle of honey.
