FIGGY PUDDING

Categories     dessert

Time 2h45m

Yield 8 to 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

1/2 cup (1 stick) butter, plus more for greasing
1 cup boiling water, plus more as needed
3 tablespoons brandy
1 pound dried figs
3/4 cup granulated sugar
3 eggs
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon salt
Confectioners' sugar, for dusting

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Grease an 11-cup Bundt pan.
  • Melt the butter in a medium saucepan set over medium heat. Continue cooking until the butter turns golden brown, then transfer to a heatproof container and refrigerate until solid, about 1 hour.
  • In a medium bowl, pour the boiling water and brandy over the figs and soak until softened, about 30 minutes. Coarsely chop 1/2 cup of the figs, and set aside. Place the remaining figs and the soaking liquid in the bowl of a food processor and puree until smooth.
  • In a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, combine the chilled brown butter with the sugar and beat until combined. Add the eggs one at a time, and mix until combined. Add the fig puree, flour, baking powder, cinnamon and salt, and beat on low speed until smooth. Stir in the chopped figs. Pour the batter into the prepared Bundt pan, then cover tightly with foil and secure with a rubber band.
  • Place the Bunt pan in a 12-by-17-inch deep roasting pan and set on the bottom rack of the oven. Pour 2 inches of boiling water around Bundt pan, then cover entire roasting pan with foil. Bake until the pudding is firm to the touch and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, about 1 hour 15 minutes.
  • Cool the pudding for 10 minutes, then invert the Bundt pan over a plate to unmold the pudding. Sprinkle the pudding with confectioners' sugar and cut into slices to serve.

Time 1h30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

1 1/2 cups chopped dried pitted dates
1/2 cup chopped dried figs
2 cups water
1 teaspoon baking soda
100 grams (3 1/2 ounces or 7 tablespoons) butter, softened
1 cup superfine sugar
2 eggs
2 1/2 cups self-rising flour
75 grams (2 1/2-ounces) dark chocolate, grated
Butter, for coating ramekins
Ice cream or whipped cream, for garnish
2 cups brown sugar
2 cups heavy cream
200 grams (7-ounces or 14 tablespoons) butter
Fresh figs, quartered, for garnish
Vanilla ice cream, optional
Whipped heavy cream, optional

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Add the dates, dried figs and water to a medium saucepan and bring to boil over medium heat. Remove the pan from the heat and stir in the baking soda. Let cool for about 5 minutes, then add to a blender and puree.
  • Using a hand mixer, cream the butter and sugar in a large bowl. Add the eggs and beat well. Fold in the flour, the pureed date mixture and the chocolate.
  • Put the mixture into 4 buttered, 1-cup individual ramekins, filling halfway or slightly under. Put in the oven and bake for 20 to 25 minutes.
  • Prepare the sauce by stirring the sugar and cream in a medium saucepan over low heat. Simmer until the sugar dissolves. Raise the heat and bring to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer for 5 minutes. Add the butter and stir until incorporated.
  • Remove the ramekins from the oven and let stand for 10 minutes. May be served in the ramekin or unmolded onto a small serving plate. With paring knife cut a cross in the top of the puddings for the sauce.
  • Pour the sauce into the cross in the center of each pudding, then pour more sauce over the puddings and it allow to soak in slightly. Top with fresh figs and vanilla ice cream or heavily whipped cream. Serve warm.

FIGGY NOODLES

Our fig tree gives us more fruit than we can eat. I discovered this unique recipe by adding fig to every dish I ate. Who knew pasta and fig would go perfectly together? Add crumbled feta cheese to give it a creamier flavor.

Tips:

  • Choose the Right Figs: Use ripe and fresh figs for the best flavor and texture. Look for figs that are plump, have no blemishes, and have a slightly sweet aroma.
  • Prep the Figs Properly: Before using, wash the figs thoroughly and remove the stems. If the figs are large, cut them into smaller pieces.
  • Use Unsalted Butter: Unsalted butter allows you to control the amount of salt in the dish. This is especially important if you are using salty cheese or ham.
  • Cook the Noodles Al Dente: Cook the noodles according to the package instructions, but make sure they are still slightly firm to the bite. This will help them hold their shape and texture in the dish.
  • Don't Overcrowd the Pan: When cooking the noodles and vegetables, don't overcrowd the pan. This will prevent them from cooking evenly and becoming mushy.
  • Add the Figs at the End: Add the figs towards the end of cooking to prevent them from becoming too soft and losing their shape.
  • Season to Taste: Always taste the dish before serving and adjust the seasoning as needed. You may want to add more salt, pepper, or herbs to suit your preferences.
