Just a quick post to serve you a really simple idea of a dessert that you make in few minutes. You might have noticed that I seem a bit obsessed with things you can make with the speed of light and you are so right! It is getting hotter and hotter here and I am getting slower and slower so what would take three minutes wintertime now takes twenty so I just have to prepare food that is quick not to get stuck for the rest of my life there in the kitchen. No, joking apart, it is really getting hotter and hotter and I need to make and eat simple things and new fruits and vegetables are popping up so why not eat them now when they are at their best?
A FIG, SOME BLUEBERRIES AND A SPOON OF GINGER HONEY
fresh and mature figs
blueberries
fresh ginger
honey of the runny sort, I used lemon blossom honey that has a little acid tang to it, at least in my mouth
Peel and grate fresh ginger and then mix it with honey.
Cut a cross on the top of the fig and open it up. Do the same with the rest of the figs.
Put a small handful of blueberries in the middle of each fig, then drizzle ginger honey over and it is ready to serve.
