At our Lamb and Fig Feast, I made a variety of dishes including a Cantaloupe Salad with Calimyrna Figs. Calimyrna figs have a pale yellow skin with a buttery and nutty flavor similar to a Chardonnay. Symphony is a hybrid grape of Muscat of Alexandria and Grenache Gris.
The Recipe: Cantaloupe Salad
with Calimyrna Figs
1 cantaloupe cubed
1 lb Calimyrna figs, sliced
Fig balsamic vinegar
Gently fold the cantaloupe
and figs together in a large bowl. Plate the salad and drizzle the fig balsamic
vinegar on top.
Obsession Symphony is a seductively aromatic wine with captivating aromas of gardenia, honeysuckle and star jasmine. Flavors of this extremely enjoyable wine are tropical with peaches, pineapple and a hint of ginger, finishing off crisp and clean. Goes great with this dish!
Special thank you to the California Fig Association for contributing the delicious fruit.
