Fig And Rosemary Flatbread Recipes

Steps:

• Fill a copper mug with crushed or small ice.
• Add 1 fig and 1 sprig of rosemary to a cocktail shaker and muddle. Top with ice, then add the vodka and the juice from the lime wedge and shake. Strain into the ice-filled mug and top with the ginger beer. Slice the remaining fig. Garnish the mug with the sliced fig and remaining rosemary sprig.

Steps:

• Place a pizza stone in the bottom of the oven and preheat the oven to 500ºF. (The pizza stone is ideal but not necessary - just make sure the oven is hot enough to cook the pizza's).
• Allow at least 45 minutes for the pizza stone to heat thoroughly.
• Meanwhile, on a lightly floured surface, roll out one piece of the pizza dough to a 13-inch round.
• Dust a pizza peel with flour and slide the dough onto it.
• Drizzle with about 2 tablespoons of the olive oil and sprinkle with half of the garlic and rosemary.
• Season with salt and pepper & pinch of crushed red pepper flakes (if using).
• Dollop 1/4 cup of the fig jam (it is difficuclt to spread) all over the crust, being sure to leave a 1-inch border of dough all around.
• Scatter half of the cheese and prosciutto over the dough.
• Slide the flatbread onto the stone and bake for about 15 minutes, until puffed and golden.
• Transfer the flatbread to a cutting board and let cool for 10 minutes before slicing.
• Repeat with the remaining ingredients to make the second flatbread.
• Garnish with the sliced scallion and serve.

Steps:

• In a bowl whisk together all ingredients except figs until smooth and season with salt and pepper. Rosemary goat cheese may be made 1 day ahead and chilled, covered. Bring goat cheese to cool room temperature before serving.
• Mound goat cheese in center of a platter. Halve figs and arrange around goat cheese for dipping.

Steps:

• Cheese -- Add all the ingredients except the fig preserves and fresh figs and blend well in a food processor until well combined. You could also use a mixer if you don't have a food processor.
• Mold -- No I just use a small glass bowl or cereal or salad bowl which works great for this. Just line the bowl with plastic wrap and add the cheese and press into the bowl. Then top with another piece of the plastic wrap to cover well. Just chill 2-4 hours.
• Presentation -- Un-mold the cheese onto a plate and top the the preserves. I will sometimes heat up the preserves for just a few seconds in the microwave to get a smooth consistency (optional). Then garnish with the fresh figs.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 300°F. Bring wine and figs to boil in small saucepan. Remove from heat and let stand until figs soften, about 15 minutes. Drain figs, reserving wine and figs separately.
• Meanwhile, heat oil in heavy large ovenproof pot over medium-high heat. Sprinkle pork with salt and pepper. Add pork to pot and cook until browned on all sides, about 8 minutes total. Transfer pork to platter.
• Add onion and carrot to same pot. Cover and reduce heat to medium-low. Cook until onion is golden brown, stirring occasionally, about 8 minutes. Stir in rosemary and garlic; sauté 1 minute. Add broth and reserved wine.
• Return pork to pot, meat side down. Bring to boil. Cover and transfer to oven. Bake until thermometer inserted into center of roast registers 150°F, adding figs during last 10 minutes of roasting, about 1 1/2 hours.
• Transfer pork to cutting board. Using slotted spoon, transfer figs to small bowl. Tent pork and figs with foil to keep warm. Spoon fat from surface of sauce. Bring sauce to boil. Stir butter and flour in medium bowl to blend. Whisk 1 cup sauce and mustard into butter mixture. Whisk mustard-butter mixture into sauce in pot. Boil sauce until thickened and slightly reduced, about 8 minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
• Transfer pork to platter, surround with figs, and pour sauce over. Carve pork between rib bones.

Steps:

• In a food processor, combine goat cheese, milk, rosemary, and vinegar; process until very smooth.
• Add figs, and season with coarse salt and ground pepper; pulse once or twice just to incorporate.

Steps:

• In a small bowl, dissolve yeast in 1/4 cup warm water; stir in honey. Add 1/4 cup flour; mix until almost smooth. Let stand 30 minutes or until bubbly., Place remaining flour, remaining warm water, oil, rosemary and salt in a food processor; add yeast mixture. Process until dough forms a ball. Process 1 minute more to knead dough, pulsing as needed., Transfer to a greased bowl, turning once to grease the top. Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 1 hour., Preheat oven to 425°. Punch down dough. Turn onto a lightly floured surface; divide and shape dough into 6 balls. On greased baking sheets, pat each ball into a 5-in. circle. For topping, brush tops with oil; sprinkle with rosemary and salt. Bake 8-12 minutes or until golden brown. Serve warm. Freeze option: Freeze cooled flatbreads in a freezer container. To use, thaw at room temperature or microwave each flatbread on high until heated through, 10-15 seconds.
