Figs, with their sweet and juicy flesh, are a delightful fruit that can be enjoyed in many ways. One of the most popular ways to prepare figs is to roast them with prosciutto. This combination of salty and sweet flavors creates a dish that is both elegant and satisfying. When roasted, the figs caramelize and become even sweeter, while the prosciutto adds a crispy and savory element. Prosciutto roasted figs can be served as an appetizer, a side dish, or even on a salad. They are also a great way to enjoy figs that are slightly overripe.
