Ingredients

3 slices Niedlov’s sourdough toasted
Drizzle of olive oil
4 oz. whipped whole milk ricotta cheese
Pinch of fleur de sel
2 oz. Makin’ Honey honey

Instructions

Put three pieces of sourdough in a panini press with a gentle drizzle of olive oil on the bread.
Once the toast is light golden brown in color, cut each piece at a diagonal angle for presentation.
In a small soufflé dish, add your ricotta cheese. With a spoon, press gently on top of the cheese to create a small indention.
Now, add olive oil to the well you’ve created.
Finally, sprinkle flour de sel on top. Serve with local honey on the side. Dig in!
