Saturday night

I can blog early today as we are going to friends for dinner.  I am bringing dessert.  I have made this before.  It is delicious, light and easy.  It comes from the Jacques Pepin, More Fast Food My Way.  You can never go wrong using a Jacques Pepin recipe. 
This is called Sauteed Stuffed Figs with Blueberries.  Serves 4

12 dried Figs
12 walnut halves
2 T unsalted butter
1/2 c fruity white wine.(   Jim gave me a dry Riesling)
1/3 c honey
1 c blueberries.

Cut the figs in half and press 1 wanlunt into each half.  Embed it well. 
Melt butter in a medium nonstick saucepan and add the wine and honey.  Arrange the figs, walnut side up and bring to a boil.  Cover and boil gently for about 2 minutes or until the mixture is syrupy and the figs are glazed. 

Let them cool to room temperature.  Arrange on a platter, again walnut side up and pour the sauce over the figs.  Sprinkle the blueberries on top.  According to Dr. Oz blueberries keep you young.   
Bon Appetite
