How to Finish a Tray of Figs in Three Days: Part 2

Eat them with cheese! Seen here with one of my favourite Spanish sheep's milk cheeses, Manchego! Figs are also great with Pont L'évêque. See part one of my fig feast here.

How to Finish a Tray of Figs in Three Days: Part 1

Over the recent Easter break I treated myself to a whole tray of figs.  They were on special which, while great for the pocket, doesn't leave you with much time devour them before the mould does!  Fortunately figs are versatile so if you love them like I do, it's pretty easy to get through the lot. See my breakfast figs below served with ricotta and honey.

Pont L'Évêque

Pont L'Évêque is one of my (many) favourite French cheeses.  A creamy washed rind that is one part heart attack and two parts stench, the taste is very moreish.  As I discovered yesterday, it's great with figs and, of course, red wine.  Definitely worth the smell it leaves in the fridge.
