Tips:
- Choose ripe, flavorful figs: Look for figs that are plump, slightly soft to the touch, and have a deep purple or black color. Avoid figs that are wrinkled or have bruises or cuts.
- Use fresh rosemary: Fresh rosemary has a more intense flavor than dried rosemary. If you only have dried rosemary, use about half the amount.
- Toast the walnuts: Toasting the walnuts brings out their nutty flavor and makes them more fragrant.
- Simmer the sauce until it thickens: The sauce should be thick enough to coat the back of a spoon. This will take about 15-20 minutes.
- Serve the sauce warm or at room temperature: Cranberry sauce is delicious served warm or at room temperature. It can be made ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
Conclusion:
This fig and rosemary cranberry sauce is a delicious and unique twist on the classic holiday side dish. The figs add a sweet and slightly tart flavor, while the rosemary and walnuts add a savory and nutty flavor. This sauce is sure to be a hit at your next holiday gathering.
