Steps of preparation

  1. In a bowl, whip the ricotta, heavy cream, 1 tbsp Favuzzi Coratina Finishing Extra Virgin Olive Oil, lemon juice, a pinch of sea salt and black pepper using an immersion blender for 1–2 minutes until silky smooth and glossy. Set aside.
  2. Heat 1 tbsp of olive oil and 1 tbsp of butter in a skillet over high heat. Add the shredded wild mushrooms in a single layer and sear undisturbed for 3–4 minutes until golden-brown. Stir in the minced garlic, salt, and pepper, cook for 1 more minute, then remove from heat.
  3. Toast the bread slices in a pan with a touch of butter or olive oil until golden and crunchy.
  4. Slather a generous layer of whipped ricotta onto each warm toast. Layer with Favuzzi Mushroom & Truffle Spread, then top with the warm seared wild mushrooms.
  5. Finish with toasted crushed hazelnuts and fresh thyme leaves.
