Ricotta is white, soft and has a slightly sweet flavor that comes from the fresh milk. Ricotta is favorably used in Italian desserts.
Ingredients
3 tablespoons butter
2 cups chopped crisp apples, unpeeled (about 2 medium apples)
1 teaspoon grated fresh ginger root
1 cup shelled roasted pistachios
2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
1 package (5 ounces) fresh baby spinach
1 cup whole-milk ricotta cheese
2 tablespoons honey
Coarsely ground pepper
Directions
Step 1 In a large skillet, melt butter over medium-high heat. Add apples and ginger; cook and stir until apples soften and begin to caramelize, 3-5 minutes. Stir in pistachios and Dijon mustard. Reduce heat; simmer 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Step 2 Pour two-thirds of apple mixture over spinach. Add spoonfuls of ricotta cheese; top with remaining apple mixture. Drizzle with honey. Add fresh pepper to taste.
