  • 1 teaspoons thyme half of it separated, finely chopped fresh
  • ½ teaspoon lemon zest
  • 1 tablespoon pistachio optional

Instructions

  1. Add ricotta cheese, crushed pepper flakes, salt, half of the honey, half of the thyme, and lemon zest to a food processor or a bowl of a stand mixer.

Notes

  • Helpful Tips:
  • Alternative equipment: If you don't have a food processor or stand mixer, you can use a bowl and an electric hand mixer instead. It's best to use a medium speed when using an electric mixer.
  • Storing Tips: Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days.
  • Serving suggestions: Make it part of a grazing board, or serve with garlic crostini, crackers, pita chips, fresh bread, or fresh veggies.
