Polish Fig And Bacon Appetizer Figs Pigs

---

I had this in an upscale polish restaurant in santa monica. This is my version of what was served. I have served this to various parties, even people who claims not to like figs loved it.

Steps

---

Soak figs in hot water for 15 minutes , or until hydrated and soft.

---

Trim fat from bacon , so only 1 / 3 or less of the bacon is fat.

---

Bake or fry bacon until half done , edges curl but still soft.

---

Drain bacon on paper towel.

---

Wrap each fig with bacon and secure with toothpick.

---

Broil assembled appetizers in oven , until bacon is crispy , about 5 to 10 minutes.

---

Watch it , so bacon does not burn.

---

Serve as an appetizer with red wine.

---

The coombination of sweet jammy center with crispy salty bacon is a crowd pleaser.
