From BHG, with a few changes and adjustments. The original recipe called for walnuts but I'm not a fan so replaced with almonds. Serve with toasted baguette slices or crackers.

THYME AND FIG GOAT CHEESE SPREAD



Thyme and Fig Goat Cheese Spread image

When I started growing herbs in my garden it took me a while to find a good way to use thyme, but this easy appetizer spread lets it shine. I usually garnish it with a sprig of thyme, slivered almonds and chopped figs. -Laura Cox, Columbia, Missouri

CHèVRE WITH CANDIED FIGS



Chèvre with Candied Figs image

Provided by Linnea Johansson

Categories     Cocktail Party     Wedding     New Year's Eve     Goat Cheese     Fig     Anniversary     Shower     Engagement Party     Party

Yield Makes 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 4

3/4 pound chèvre or other goat cheese
4 fresh figs or 1/2 cup dried
1/4 cup of balsamic vinegar
3 tbsp of brown muscovado sugar, or brown sugar

Steps:

  • 1. Slice the chèvre log, and place on an oven pan. Cut the figs into rounds.
  • 2. Pour the balsamic vinegar and sugar into a small pot, and bring it to a boil. Lower the heat and let it simmer until the mixture is reduced and sticks to the back of a spoon.
  • 3. If you are using dried figs, place them in the vinegar mixture and let them absorb some of the fluid while the mixture cools.
  • 4. Heat the chèvre cheese slices quickly by using your oven's broiler function for about 3 minutes, or until the cheese has slightly started to melt. Place the cheese on a serving plate, and top it with the candied figs and vinegar mixture. Serve warm.
  • Simplify:
  • You can replace muscavado sugar with brown sugar, honey, or regular sugar. Always taste the mixture since the different sugars have different sweetness, and you might have to add more.
  • For a challenge:
  • With their peppery honey flavor, Black Mission figs are the best money can buy. Fresh Black Mission figs are only available a few weeks out of the year, so if you happen to come across some, make compotes and freeze for later use.
  • Muscovado sugar:
  • The sugar is available in light and dark flavors, and is a raw sugar made from sugar canes. Compared with regular refined sugar, it is less processed and high in mineral content. The darker sugar has a liquorish flavor, and the lighter version has a toffee flavor.

FIG AND GOAT CHEESE BRUSCHETTAS



Fig and Goat Cheese Bruschettas image

Provided by Ina Garten

Categories     appetizer

Time 1h30m

Yield 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 teaspoons grated orange zest (2 oranges)
1/2 cup freshly squeezed orange juice
3 3/4 cups sugar
1 vanilla bean, split lengthwise
2 pounds fresh ripe purple figs, stems removed and halved lengthwise
12 slices sourdough bread, for serving
8 ounces creamy goat cheese, such as Montrachet, for serving
Grated orange zest, for serving (optional)

Steps:

  • Place the orange zest and orange juice in a medium (10-inch) heavy-bottomed pot or Dutch oven, such as Le Creuset. Add the sugar, vanilla bean, and figs to the pot. Cover and bring to a full boil over medium heat. (Don't worry; it may look dry.) Stir the mixture and boil hard for 1 minute, stirring to dissolve the sugar. Lower the heat, and cook uncovered at a full simmer for 50 minutes to 1 hour and 15 minutes, stirring occasionally. You want the little bubbles to be throughout the pot, not just at the edges. After 45 minutes, refrigerate a small amount of the liquid to see if it becomes syrupy. It should be like a soft fruit preserve. Keep cooking just until the liquid starts to gel when cold. If the liquid is too firm, add a little orange juice or water, cook for a minute, and test it again until it's right. Depending on how ripe the figs are, they will probably keep their shape, but it's fine if they don't. Discard the vanilla bean and serve or refrigerate.
  • Before serving, toast or grill the bread and spread with goat cheese. Spoon the fig preserves on, then the grated orange zest if using, and serve.
