Fresh figs might be ones of the best things that fall has to offer, don’t you agree? I love adding both fresh and dried figs in my salads, it gives it such a lovely sweetness. And I have always been a sucker for the savory and sweet combination. There’s something about the combination of sweet juicy fresh figs, fresh yet tangy goat cheese and savory prosciutto that makes my taste buds go crazy. Therefore this salad is a given for me during autumn. I also like topping it with some roughly chopped walnuts and drizzle some honey on top, it give this salad that extra lift. This salad is perfect to serve either as a starter, lunch or even as a side dish.
A few tips:
- Use juicy, fresh and sweet figs. This is really important since they provide both a fresh, sweet and juicy taste to this dish. So try to find ripe and figs that have a lot of taste. Don’t buy the cheaper once that are bland and tasteless.
- Use good quality prosciutto. There really is a difference between buying the cheaper packaged once compared to the once you buy over counter. So make sure to find either a high quality packaged prosciutto or buy a good one over the counter.
- The same goes for the goat cheese. Try to buy a high quality one and not the cheaper alternatives that are available in the store.
- I love to top this salad with some walnuts and balsamic vinegar or honey. They add a nice crunch and sweetness to this dish.
