Hello and welcome to this thing we’re doing where we help you figure out what you’re gonna put in your mouth this week. Some of these are recipes we’ve tried, some of these are recipes we’re looking forward to trying, all of them are fucking delicious. Tell us what you want to put in your piehole or suggest your own recipes, and we’ll talk about which things we made, which things we loved, and which things have changed us irreversibly as people. Last week, we ate cake.
I love figs, but it took me longer than I care to admit to realize that the things I thought of as “figs” (i.e., dried) were even better fresh. (I blame Canada.) These fig recipes use both, to keep you going whether in season and out.
Also, there’s probably a rule that I have to include this:
1. Fig and Lemon Sparkler with Basil Mint Simple Syrup
2. Fig Thyme
3. Broiled Figs with Labneh Panna Cotta
4. Balsamic Roasted Figs and Shallots with Herbed Socca
5. Baked Figs with Bacon, Cheese and Pecans on Grilled Bread
6. Eggplant with California Figs and Leek
7. Grilled Fig Tartines
8. Fig and Arugula Salad with Pistachio Pesto
9. Bacon-Wrapped Fig and Honeycrisp Apple Salad with Salted Caramel Pecans
10. Roasted Beetroot Salad with Figs and Balsamic Dressing
11. Tomato, Fresh Fig and Blue Cheese Salad
12. Lebanese Freekeh and Fig Salad

18. Roasted Fig Tart with Honey and Mascarpone

This take on fig newtons is gluten free, vegan and paleo!
30. Raw Vanilla Coconut Fig Slice

31. Fig and Blueberry Crisp with Goat Cheese Whipped Cream

33. Roasted Fig and Ginger Ice Cream
Oh gosh did I ever have a craving!
Figs have never seemed appealing to me, but I might have to give some of these a try because they actually look good.
I had a super disappointing fig yogurt-related experience this morning, so I think I’m pretty much required to make something off of this list for dinner. The only question is how I’m supposed to choose just one thing to make when everything looks so delicious
Not gonna lie, when I bite into a juicy whole fig I feel dirty every. single. time.
i came here to make sure that shane video was here. you do not disappoint, friend.
just 4 u
Heh I have figgy recipe I could add but I can’t share it, because it’s a family secret and it’s way too heavy duty.
Cucidati aka fig cookies.
Had no idea there could or would be so many savoury recipes for figs. Sweet sure, but savoury? Wouldn’t have thought it.
I missed last week’s cake round up…
