Prosciutto-Wrapped Figs with Walnuts and Saga Blue This recipe was created during the late summer fig season for fresh figs but works equally well with dried figs. If using ripe figs, make sure they are somewhat firm and not too ripe.
Grilling Method: Direct/Medium Heat 12 wooden toothpicks, round not flat Soak the toothpicks in water for 30 minutes. Discard the stems from the figs and cut an X through the top of each, almost to the base, so that you can see the center of the fruit. Set aside Place the walnuts on waxed paper and wrap a generous portion of Saga around each walnut. Place a walnut-cheese nugget gently in the center of each fig. Carefully push the figs back together and wrap each in a slice of prosciutto. Secure with a toothpick. If using herbs, soak in water and place on the cooking grate. Position figs on top of the herbs—or directly on the cooking grate--grill, turning, until the edges of the prosciutto begin to curl and the figs are hot throughout, 5 to 7 minutes. Serve the figs hot or warm. Makes 12 appetizers © 2002 Girls at the Grill™
