Artisanal Avocado Toast

A timeless classic redefined with premium ingredients. This avocado toast is a masterclass in texture, combining creamy mashed avocado with crunchy sourdough and a hint of citrus.

Ingredients

• 2 thick slices of artisanal sourdough bread
• 1 large, ripe Hass avocado
• Freshly squeezed lemon juice (about half a lemon)
• Maldon sea salt and freshly cracked black pepper
• Optional: Red pepper flakes or microgreens for garnish

Preparation Steps

1. Lightly toast your sourdough bread until golden and crisp.
2. In a small bowl, roughly mash the avocado with lemon juice, salt, and pepper, keeping it slightly chunky.
3. Spread the avocado mixture generously over the warm toast.
4. Finish with your choice of garnishes and serve immediately for peak freshness.

Chef's Note

The secret to the perfect avocado toast lies in the bread. Use a high-quality sourdough or multi-grain loaf that can support the weight of the toppings without getting soggy.
