Pizza: finish any pizza with a spoon (esp margherita, mushroom, prosciutto).
Bready boys: on sourdough with ricotta, focaccia, panini, garlic bread, grilled cheese.
Veg: roast potatoes, pumpkin, broccolini, green beans. Add after roasting.
Salads: use it as a cheat dressing: crisp + Hot Fermented Honey + sherry vinegar
