Fig and Gorgonzola Bites
Note: It's helpful to make one first, so you can taste it and get the balance just right.
Figs, cut in half
Soft, unaged Gorgonzola or your favorite soft blue cheese
Balsamic reduction, such as Tesoro di Modena Organic Balsamic Creme
Fresh chopped mint
1. Place a knob of Gorgonzola on each fig half, just enough to make its presence known but not overpower the fig or completely cover its pinkish beauty.
2. Drizzle a little balsamic reduction on top. Sprinkle with chopped mint leaves. Serve at room temperature.
