My friends at Goodbite
featured this lovely grilled figs and burrata cheese video today, and
since I've been seeing lots of fresh figs at the market I thought I'd
re-post it. If you haven't seen it before, I hope you enjoy. If you've
seen it, but didn't get around to trying it, then consider this a
friendly reminder that you really, really should!The original post from last August follows:
If you watch as much food television as I do, you hear the adjective "sexy" thrown around quite a bit, and more often than not, it just doesn't fit. No matter how nice a bowl of chili looks, or how beautifully a game hen glistens, they're not really "sexy."
This burrata bruschetta with grilled figs on the other hand? Totally "sexy!" If there were such a thing as word association flash cards of food, the most common result for this one would be "sexy." Okay, I'm going to stop using those quotation marks now.
Above and beyond how awesome this recipe tastes, it's so nice to be able to post such an aesthetically pleasing dish after the recent string of homely food. I appreciate all the nice comments about the sausage and zucchini stew, but if that thing was a blind date, it would have been described as, "having a nice personality."
