Passover is stressful. The pandemic is stressful. This Shabbat, let’s relax with some pizza! Matzah pizza!
In normal times, I would treat Pesach Shabbat as a special occasion, complete with a special occasion-worthy meal. I have always loved Pesach Shabbat. As a child, my beloved Auntie Brigitte Scheinmann would make Tunisian feasts for a house full of family excited for msoki and honey-fried matzah.
Olive oil
8 tablespoons ricotta (This is a great recipe if you are out of KP cheese. Click here if you want to make your own ricotta)
2 tablespoons fresh thyme.
Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Drizzle olive oil over grapes, a hearty drizzle about ½ cup. Sprinkle with sea salt. Cook grapes for 15 - 20 minutes, until skins are blistered. Set aside to cool for a few minutes, until they are able to be handled. Take the remaining olive oil and pour it into a bowl.
Spread ricotta evenly across both Matzah. Place grapes upon ricotta, drizzle the olive oil from roasting the grapes and sprinkle with salt. Dust with fresh thyme.

Today is my coronavirus anniversary.
Everyone has one, even if they don’t fall on the exact same day. For me, that day is March 12, 2020, the day that school shut down. This is when it became clear to me that I was living through a global crisis, unlike anything I, or anyone I knew, had ever faced.
