Crostini di Ricotta, Fava e Bottarga

Name: Crostini di Ricotta, Fava e Bottarga
Prep time: 20 min
Cook time: 15 min
Total time: 35 min
Yield: 4 servings
Ingredients: 1 lb fresh fava beans (in pod, or 6 oz shelled); 8 oz whole-milk ricotta (drained); 2 tbsp mascarpone (softened); ¼ tsp fleur de sel; 1 tbsp fresh mint (finely chopped); 8 slices ciabatta (cut ½-inch thick); 2 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil (for brushing); 1 clove garlic (halved); ½ tsp bottarga (mullet roe, finely grated); juice of ¼ lemon; cracked black pepper; edible flowers (optional, for garnish)

A study in delicate layering: creamy whipped ricotta spreads on toasted ciabatta, topped with a vibrant fava purée that tastes of spring meadows, finished with a pinch of bottarga's salty umami sea-kiss. Elegant and light enough to sustain, not overwhelm.
