Fig Preserves+Buffalo Mozzarella Toast with Pink Peppercorn Salt
Fig Preserves+Buffalo Mozzarella Toast with Pink Peppercorn Salt
makes 2
INGREDIENTS
1 buffalo mozzarella ball, drained from its liquid
2 slices dried fruit country loaf
a few spoonfuls of fig preserves - blackberry or currant jam work nicely too
a few pinches of pink peppercorn salt - to your taste
good olive oil, for the toast
DIRECTIONS
Pink peppercorn salt blend is as it sounds: mix together 2:1 pink peppercorns and French grey salt. With your fingers, gently rub the two together a bit to combine, so that the flaky pink shells intermingle throughout.
Drizzle bread with olive oil and bake until golden in a toaster oven. If you don't have one, use the regular oven set to 350. It will take about 7-10 minutes to achieve golden crispness.
Place toast on plates. Tear mozzarella into pieces and place onto toast. Spoon preserves on top, to your taste. At the table, sprinkle the pink peppercorn salt to finish, with extra available as needed. Because it's so good, you'll want to add more….
