LEMON RICOTTA FRITTERS
These mouthwatering fritters are golden brown outside, soft and cakelike inside, and have a lovely citrusy and creamy flavor from the classic duo: lemon ricotta. Fritters are great served warm with jam or honey. -Tina Mirilovich, Johnstown, Pennsylvania

Steps:
- Prepare a charcoal grill with hot coals or turn a gas grill to medium-high heat.
- Combine the ricotta, scallions, dill, chives, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper and set aside. Cut the bread in half and cut each half into 6 thick slices to make 12 slices total.
- When the grill is hot, brush the bread with olive oil and grill on each side for 1 1/2 to 2 minutes, until lightly browned. Remove from the grill and rub each slice of bread with the cut side of the garlic clove. Sprinkle with salt and pepper and spread with the herbed ricotta. Serve 2 warm slices per person with the green salad on the side.
- Set a large sieve over a deep bowl. Dampen 2 layers of cheesecloth with water and line the sieve with the cheesecloth.
- Pour the milk and cream into a stainless-steel or enameled pot such as Le Creuset. Stir in the salt. Bring to a full boil over medium heat, stirring occasionally. Turn off the heat and stir in the vinegar. Allow the mixture to stand for 1 minute until it curdles. It will separate into thick parts (the curds) and milky parts (the whey).
- Pour the mixture into the cheesecloth-lined sieve and allow it to drain into the bowl at room temperature for 20 to 25 minutes, occasionally discarding the liquid that collects in the bowl. The longer you let the mixture drain, the thicker the ricotta. (I tend to like mine on the thicker side, but some prefer it moister.) Transfer the ricotta to a bowl, discarding the cheesecloth and any remaining whey. Use immediately or cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate. The ricotta will keep refrigerated for 4 to 5 days.
- Place the salad greens in a large bowl.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the lemon juice, olive oil, salt, and pepper. Pour enough dressing on the salad to moisten. Toss and serve.

Steps:
- Heat oil in a low-sided six-quart saucepan over medium-high heat until a deep-frying thermometer registers 360 degrees. Line a baking pan with paper towels.
- Meanwhile, place the ricotta in a medium bowl. Using a rubber spatula, break up the curds, loosening the consistency without completely smoothing.
- In a large bowl, sift together the flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and nutmeg. Make a large well in the center. Place the eggs, honey, and vanilla in a medium bowl, and whisk to combine. Pour the egg mixture into the well. Using a whisk, gradually draw the flour mixture into the egg mixture, whisking until smooth before drawing in more flour. Continue until all of the flour mixture has been incorporated.
- Add the ricotta, and gently fold into the batter until just combined; the ricotta will remain visible in the batter.
- Carefully spoon the batter, 1 tablespoon at a time, into the hot oil, being careful not to overcrowd the pan. Fry until golden on outside but still slightly runny on inside, about 1 minute, turning after about 30 seconds. Using a slotted spoon, remove fritters from oil, and transfer to lined baking pan. Repeat with remaining batter.
- When cool enough to handle, sift nonmelting sugar over fritters; transfer to a serving platter. Serve with huckleberry compote.
HERB FRITTERS
Inspired by a recipe in Clifford A. Wright's "The Little Foods of the Mediterranean," these fritters are light and delicate. You can use a mix of herbs and finely chopped greens - mild ones like spinach and chard, or more robust greens like dandelion or arugula - or all herbs, or all greens. You can also use this batter as a vehicle for other finely chopped or grated vegetables, like cabbage or carrots, onions or leeks. The fritters make a great hors d'oeuvre or side dish.

- Beat egg white to stiff but not dry peaks and fold into batter. Fold in finely chopped herbs and greens.
- Pour oil into a wok or wide saucepan to a depth of 3 inches and heat over medium-high heat to 360 to 375 degrees. Set up a sheet pan with a rack on it next to pan. Cover rack with a few layers of paper towels. Have a spider or deep fry skimmer handy for removing fritters from oil.
- . Scoop up the batter by the tablespoon and carefully drop into the hot oil. You should be able to fry about 5 at a time. After a few seconds flip the fritters over, then fry until golden brown, about 2 minutes, flipping over again halfway through. Remove from oil with a spider or deep-fry skimmer and drain on the towel-covered rack. Allow to cool slightly, and serve.
