Preparation

  1. STEP 1 OF 6

    Slice the rustic bread into slices about 1.5 cm thick. Heat a grill or a non-stick pan and toast the slices for 2-3 minutes on each side, until they are golden and crispy. While still warm, brush them with a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil.

  2. STEP 2 OF 6

    Gently wash the figs and cut them into quarters or wedges, keeping the skin if it is thin and tender.

  3. STEP 3 OF 6

    In a non-stick pan, toast the pine nuts over low heat for 2 minutes, stirring often, until they are golden and fragrant. Set aside.

  4. STEP 4 OF 6

    Generously spread the Goat Blue Cheese on each slice of toasted bread. Place the fresh fig quarters on top, distributing them harmoniously.

  5. STEP 5 OF 6

    Sprinkle with toasted pine nuts and a few fresh thyme leaves (optional). Drizzle each bruschetta with the Balsamic Vinegar Cream of Modena PGI. Season with salt and freshly ground black pepper.

  6. STEP 6 OF 6

    Serve immediately on an elegant plate, perhaps decorating with additional drops of balsamic cream and thyme sprigs.
