Fichi in Salsa di Mandorle e Arancia
Ciao! A long day, with another lining up right behind it. With my candle buring at both ends, decided I deserved to treat myself to something special – Poached Figs in Orange Almond Sauce. I loved this as a kid when Nonna Caroline served them at Sunday dinner. To update the recipe; give it a more adult, sophisticated twist, I incorporated Amaretto in place of the almond extract it normally calls for. Hey, I’m over 21!!! (I’m sure Nonna did the same when we kids weren’t around.) Te amo, Nonna e buon appetito a tutti!
