Aren't these lovely looking figs that I just picked today from my tree. By the way, they are very sweet. I also clipped some fresh oregano from my garden. So, now I'm all set to make the Chicken and Roasted Figs that I mentioned a couple days ago.
The sauce is made with "good quality" red wine vinegar, cornstarch, honey, shallots, garlic and oregano. The figs get nicely caramelized with the garlic-honey sauce during a few minutes of baking in the oven at the end of preparation.
I would say that the recipe was a nice success and I look forward to making it again next year when I have fresh figs again. In the next few days I hope to bake the Almond and Fig Cake.
Happy Weekend.

Wow, i have never seen figs done this way. I used to have several fig trees. I could get a bowl a day but grandmaw said It takes a whole lot to make anything so I never tempted. I thinks it was just her way of telling me to just give the pickings to her instead. Hahaha.
