I haven't tried this dish, and other than fig newtons, am not really familiar with this fruit. I'm submitting this for my fig-loving friends! Recipe is from the Chicago Sun-Times. Ingredients:
18 fresh figs |
1/2 cup port wine |
3 tablespoons honey (or a bit more) |
fresh red raspberries (to garnish) (optional) |
1/2 cup whipping cream, whipped with a little sugar (optional) |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350°F. 2. Prick each fig with a fork in a few places and place them in a single layer standing on end in a shallow baking dish. 3. Pour wine over. 4. Bake, basting often with wine, until figs are puffed and tender, 25-30 minutes. 5. To serve, arrange 3 figs in a serving dish. 6. Spoon a little of the wine over and drizzle each serving with 1/2 teaspoon of honey, or more, to taste. 7. Garnish with raspberries and pass the whipped cream. |
