Preparation
Step 1
Toss white/red parts of spring onions and lemon juice in a medium bowl to coat and let sit 10 minutes.
Step 2
Add spring onion greens, cherries, and ½ cup oil to bowl and toss gently again to incorporate; season cherry salsa with kosher salt and pepper.
Step 3
Prepare a grill for medium-low heat. Brush cut sides of baguette with oil. Grill, cut sides down, until bread is toasted and golden brown, about 3 minutes.
Step 4
Let toasts cool for a minute, then spread generous amounts of ricotta over both pieces. Sprinkle lightly with sea salt. Cut each half on a diagonal into 6 pieces. Arrange on a platter and, using a slotted spoon, top with cherry salsa.
Step 5
Do Ahead: Cherry salsa can be made 6 hours ahead. Cover and chill.
