White Peaches, Pistachios, Honey and Ricotta image

This recipe is based on a dish from the chef Seamus Mullen of Tertulia in New York. It's inspired by a Catalan honey-and-cheese dessert called mel i mató, with an unexpected sprinkle of pistachios and fresh peaches. After falling ill, Mr. Mullen changed his diet to focus more on ingredients with anti-inflammatory effects. Many such foods, like stone fruits, often play a central role in the Spanish cuisine he specializes in.

This was a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I would have preferred it with less honey.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my dessert didn't turn out as pictured. The ricotta was too runny.

The peaches were a bit underripe, so the dessert was a bit tart. I think it would have been better with ripe peaches.
