Fresh Fig's Anyone?

It's finally that season...the season for figs! Every summer we look forward to the first sight of figs at the market which we can never pass up. We've found that Bristol Farms carries a larger white fig which we feel is better than the mission black fig found in most markets.

We recommend a few ways to enjoy figs, specifically as refreshing appetizers:

Figs & Burrata (or Mozzarella) - Use 2 figs per person and slice each fig in half. Place the cheese in the center of the plate and place the figs around the cheese. Drizzle with olive oil and balsamic.

Figs & Prosciutto - Use 2 figs per person and slice each fig in half. Lay a piece of prosciutto on top of each fig or you can wrap the prosciutto around each fig. Drizzle with olive oil.
