Ingredients
- 1 baguette toasting each piece is optional
- 15 oz whole milk ricotta
- 2 radishes sliced thin
- 6 quail eggs hard boiled, or hen's eggs
- 1 orange premiumed
- 5 oz smoked salmon
- 1 cucumber sliced thinly
- 1/2 cup blueberries halved
- 1/2 cup strawberries sliced
- 1/2 cup cherries pitted and halved
- 1/4 cup honey
- 2 prigs mint leaves
- 2 prigs fresh dill
- 2 tbsp fresh chives chopped
Instructions
- Cut the bread into half inch slices. I loved the way this tasted with a fresh baguette right out of the oven but you can toast the slices for a little extra crunch or even brush them with some olive oil and then bake on a sheet at 400F for a few minutes.
- Spread ricotta on each piece of bread.
- Add toppings. I paired salmon with dill, cucumbers with mint, radishes with dill, hard boiled eggs with chives, and give the fruit a drizzle of honey.

Notes
- If you want to make this in advance I recommend toasting the bread in the oven first.
- You can sub chicken eggs for quail.
- Feel free to use what's in season and add your favorite ingredients.
- If you're toasting the bread let it cool before spreading the ricotta on top.
