This is a recipe from The Seven Species: Stories and Recipes Inspired by Food of the Bible by Matt Biers-Ariel. This particular recipe is complements of Sharon Strauss. It is a simple appetizer that tastes so good!! Make sure you use only the fresh figs ( they are available seasonally in most supermarkets). The recipe in the book uses an un-toasted bagutte. I like the appetizer better on a toasted one . The Seven Species are the sacred fruits and grains grown in Israel. They are: Wheat, Barley, Grape, Fig, pomegranate,Oolive and Date. This recipe is from the Fig chapter. Ingredients:
1 french baguette |
4 ounces goat cheese |
6 -7 fresh figs, thickly sliced |
Directions:
1. 1. Slice the baguette into 1-inch rounds .
2. 2. Lightly toast the rounds.
3. 3. Spread cheese on each round.
4. 4. Flace fig slice onto top of each cheese/baguette.
5. 5. Serve right away.
