Saturday Recipes - Figs!

Today I dream about the second fig season this year :)

I feel like I didn't eat enough of them during the first one so I'm looking forward to trying all these recipes soon! I love figs, not only for their amazing flavour but also for how versatile they are - you can serve them hot or cold, sweet or savoury!

Grilled Brie with Fresh Figs and Thyme Honey

I love grilled brie or camembert so if I add fresh figs to it and aromatic thyme honey I'm sure it would make it even more delicious! Plus, it's so easy to make it barely requires your presence in the kitchen ;) Get the recipe here!

Okay, I admit! This recipe is not about the figs - it's the chocolate! So much chocolate! I don't think I have to add that I love chocolate :) Find this amazing recipe here!

Fresh Figs with Cashew Cream

It's so sophisticated and looks wonderful! The combination of fresh figs, cashews, coconut shreds with vanilla extract and dark chocolate sounds amazing! Plus, I learned about how to make cashew cream which I had no idea existed in the first place :) Click here for the recipe!
