Appetizer Recipes

Appetizer Recipes

Italian cuisine thrives on appetizers. Whenever you have family events, dine out or on any special occasion the appetizer is essential in gathering the family to the table and starting the meal off properly, so it better be good. Well nothing gets better or more traditional than this classic finger food. Sweet, salty, chewy and creamy, it has a perfect balance of flavors and textures. This apertivo can be found on any Italian table in September during the Fall harvest when figs are the ripest. Nothings wraps up a long day spent picking grapes in the fields like a sweet bite of figs wrapped in Prosciutto with Gorgonzola and Brie.A shepherd used to live on my family’s farm in Tuscany and herd his sheep in our Pasteur. My father, a man ahead of the times, never charged the shepherd a fee. He practiced bio dynamic farming 30 years before hipsters made it cool and believed having the sheep doing their natural things on the land would be good for the fields and everyone involved. It was especially good for us when the shepherd would reward us for our generosity with a mound of fresh ricotta cheese.
