Every year I am so happy when it’s the season for figs. And of course, I always try out some new recipes. Recently, I had less time, so I could not go for huge experiments. Therefore, I decided to create a fig snack. The result was just perfect; I loved it so much that I even ate two portions. It is the ideal snack for spontaneous guests, a party buffet or just a small dinner meal.
Ingredients (for 2 persons):
1 fig
Half a goat cheese roll
4 slices of walnut bread
Butter
Lavender honey (you can also use other honey, but the gentle taste of lavender honey would be preferred)
Butter the slices of walnut bread and then put half a teaspoon of lavender honey on it. Cut two slices of the goat cheese roll and place them on the bread. Divide the fig into quarters (one quarter for one slice of bread). Now cut the fig quarter into slices and put them on the goat cheese. And there you go, enjoy a delicious fig snack.
Feigen-Walnussbrot mit Ziegenkäse und Lavendelhonig
Jedes Jahr freue ich mich, wenn wieder Feigen-Saison ist. Und natürlich probiere ich immer ein paar neue Rezepte aus. Diese Tage hatte ich etwas weniger Zeit für große Experimente. Also hab’ ich mir einen schnellen Feigen-Snack überlegt. Vom Ergebnis war ich so begeistert, dass ich gleich zwei Portionen gegessen habe. Es ist ideal für spontanen Besuch, ein Party Buffet oder ein kleines Abendessen.
Zutaten (für 2 Personen):
1 FeigeEine halbe Ziegenkäse-Rolle
4 Scheiben Walnuss-Brot
Butter zum Streichen
Lavendel-Honig (es kann auch anderer Honig verwendet werden, aber der sanfte Geschmack des Lavendel-Honigs passt besonders gut)
Brotscheiben mit Butter bestreichen, anschließend einen halben Teelöffel Lavendelhonig darauf verstreichen. Nun zwei Scheiben vom Ziegenkäse darauf legen. Feigen vierteln (je Brotscheibe eine Viertel Feige). Die Viertel Feige in Scheiben schneiden und auf den Ziegenkäse legen. Schon fertig, nun lasst Euch’s schmecken.
In Gedanken ersetze ich Ziege durch Schaf und haue rein, als gäb's kein Morgen mehr. Sieht mal wieder phänomenal aus, was du da angerichtet hast.

AntwortenLöschenWhat a gorgeous idea! I think fresh figs are one of the most beautiful fruits on earth. Do you make your own lavender honey? Fantastic.

This looks awesome. I went out for our anniversary dinner in Lausanne last night at a schwanky joint called PUR. I ordered Guinea Fowel with Figs... i never knew how to eat figs other than by the piece. now i know. i'll try this as an appetizer! I'm having a dinner in a few weeks and this would be wonderful!
AntwortenLöschenSo lovely! You said all of my favorite words in the title! Those figs look out of this world :-)
AntwortenLöschenthis looks amazing! sadly, figs are never in season where i live... but i will try to find some quality fresh ones, just so i can try this. :) cheers!
AntwortenLöschenWe love figs too. This looks like such a simple, but delicious way to enjoy them. (I typically end up eating them on their own first!)
AntwortenLöschenI made this today as a snack after our bike ride. I didn't have goat cheese, so i used cream cheese! i'm not a big cheese eater so it worked fine. but the flavors of the honey (I have lots of flavors of honey to choose from in our house), cheese and fig were just something I never imagined. my husband was like "i don't like figs" then when i came back, his plate was empty. "well, i like them like this..."
AntwortenLöscheni never made anything with figs before so this was a treat. i have 2 more so i'll make them for lunch tomorrow!
Figs and cheese: a divine combination
AntwortenLöschenI LOVE goat cheese. Especially in a combination with sweet and sour. Such as my favourite: goat cheese on a carpaccio of beet root topped with a honey balsamico dressing. God, I start getting hungry! ;-)
AntwortenLöschenYour favourite, goat cheese and beet root also sounds delicious.
