Preparation method

How do you make this?

Vegetables: Remove the tough string from the sugar snap peas, blanch briefly, and drain.

Slice long strips from the zucchini using a vegetable peeler down to the seeds.

Drizzle both vegetables with oil.

Pickled strawberry: Briefly boil everything together for the brine and pour it over the washed, drained strawberries, with stems, in a jar with a lid, and let cool.

Homemade ricotta: Bring the cream and milk to a brief boil, turn off the heat, mix in the salt and vinegar, let sit for half an hour without stirring, cover a colander with cheesecloth and carefully scoop over, let drain.

Za'atar-ginger oil: Crush the coriander and oregano in a mortar (you can also briefly roast them in a pan to release essential oils).

Mix these in a bowl together with the other herbs, oil, and Gimber.

Za'atar usually contains sesame seeds; I replace them with roasted almond flakes that I sprinkle on the salad at the end.

Finishing: Place the sugar snap peas and zucchinis on a large platter.

Distribute the ricotta in dollops on top.

Finish with the za'atar-ginger oil, almond flakes, and edible flowers.
