Recipe snapshot

Use peaches that yield slightly when pressed. Too firm and the dessert feels unfinished.

What makes it special

A few notes before you start cooking.

This dessert sits somewhere between fruit course and plated finale. The peaches stay juicy and bright, while the ricotta filling gives them structure and richness. It is elegant, fresh, and especially welcome after a heavier dinner.
