Quince Jam & Cheese Breakfast Toast served in a warm rustic Lebanese table setting

From Toula's table

Quince jam has enough character to stand up to a mild salty cheese, making this a quick breakfast that still feels distinctive.

Method

Step by step

  1. 1

    Spread or crumble the cheese over the toasted bread.

  2. 2

    Spoon quince jam over the cheese.

  3. 3

    Finish with pistachios and thyme if using, then serve immediately.

Toula Tip

If using akkawi or feta, taste the cheese first and desalt it if necessary so it does not overpower the jam.

Serving suggestion

Serve with tea, coffee or sliced fruit.

Storage

Assemble just before serving. Keep cheese and opened jam refrigerated according to their labels.

Substitutions

Labneh or ricotta can replace the white cheese; walnuts can replace pistachios.
