Recipe:
Dried Fig, Brie and Rosemary Bites
Serves 4 to 6
These flavorful bites are a wonderful garnish to a plate of sliced prosciutto or as part of an antipasto platter.
Ingredients
8 to 12 large plump dried figs
2 to 3 ounces Brie, cut into small pieces
2 teaspoons extra virgin olive oil
1 tablespoon fresh rosemary leaves
Sea salt, to taste
Ground pepper, to taste
Method
If figs are very dry, plump them in boiling water for 5 to 10 minutes. Drain and cool them. Trim stems and make a slit in the side of each fig. Push a piece of Brie into each fig. Place in a bowl and toss gently with olive oil, rosemary, salt and pepper. Serve at room temperature or heat in a 350°F oven until warm and cheese melts, about 8 minutes.
