Time 20m

Yield 8 figs, 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

1/4 cup hazelnuts
1/4 cup honey
1/4 cup scotch or 1/4 cup other whiskey
8 large fresh figs or 12 small fresh figs
butter-flavored cooking spray
mint sprig (to garnish) (optional)

Steps:

  • Toast hazelnuts in a 400-degree oven for 5 minutes. Put them in a tea towel and rub them against each other to remove skins. Chop and set aside. Raise oven temperature to 500 degrees F.
  • Combine honey and Scotch whiskey in a small sauce pan and bring to a boil, stirring. Turn off heat.
  • Meanwhile, cut off stems of figs then cut in half, lengthwise. Spray an gratin dish large enough to hold all the figs in one layer with butter-flavor spray. Put in figs, cut side up. Drizzle with honey-Scotch mixture. Sprinkle with hazelnuts.
  • Bake 7 to 10 minutes, depending on size, or just until they soften but are not falling apart. Cool to warm and put 4 to 6 fig halves on each of 4 serving plates. Spoon pan juices over figs. If desired, put a mint sprig in the middle.

SAFFRON SCENTED FRESH FIGS WITH CINNAMON AND HONEY



Saffron Scented Fresh Figs With Cinnamon and Honey image

A delectable dessert that makes full use of fresh, luscious, ripe figs with a sophisticated saffron and honey syrup. This is often on my dessert menu when my figs are in season, and is an easy and yet impressive end to any special meal. Although I have suggested that you serve this warm, it is also lovely when served at room temperature or just slightly chilled. Food of the Gods and Goddesses!

Yield Serves 6

Number Of Ingredients 6

100 ml (3 1/2 fluid ounces) whiskey
140 ml (1/4 pint) full-fat milk
285 ml (1/2 pint) double cream
6 medium egg yolks
55 g (2 ounces) clear honey
Baked Figs

Steps:

  • 1. Heat a heavy-bottomed saucepan. Add 75 ml (2 3/4 fl oz) of the whisky and flame to burn off the alcohol. Once the flames have died down, stir in the milk and cream. While this is coming to a boil, whisk the egg yolks and honey together with a standing or handheld mixer until they have doubled in size and become fluffy.
  • 2. Take the milk and cream off the heat and pour half onto the egg yolks. Whisk until combined, then put to one side.
  • 3. Put the remainder of the milk and cream back onto the heat and, when it is boiling, add the egg mixture, turn down the heat and whisk constantly for approximately 1 minute.
  • 4. Pour into a large bowl to lower the mixture's temperature and stir in the last 25 ml (3/4 fl oz) whiskey. Cover and chill.
  • 5. Once thoroughly cool, churn in an ice-cream machine. Alternatively, pour into a freezerproof container, put in the freezer and beat every 20 minutes until set.
  • 6. Place the warm figs in 6 shallow bowls or on 6 plates, pour over some syrup and put a scoop of honey and whiskey ice-cream in the centre.
