Prosciutto Wrapped Breadsticks With Fig Food

PROSCIUTTO-WRAPPED BREADSTICKS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Line a heavy large baking sheet with a silpat (nonstick baking mat) or parchment paper. Tear the dough along the perforations into strips. Using a pizza cutter or a large sharp knife, cut each dough strip in half lengthwise to form thin strips. Working with 1 dough strip at a time, roll each dough strip in the Parmesan cheese and twist. Transfer the dough strips to the prepared baking sheets.
• Bake until the breadsticks are golden brown and crisp, about 20 minutes. Cool the breadsticks completely on the baking sheet.
• Before serving, wrap 1 slice of prosciutto around each cooled breadstick. Arrange the prosciutto-wrapped breadsticks on a platter.

PROSCIUTTO-WRAPPED FIGS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Cut the figs in half and wrap a slice of prosciutto around each fig half, with the ends of the prosciutto overlapping. Place each wrapped fig on the baking sheet. Drizzle each fig with olive oil, rosemary, salt and pepper.
• Cook the figs until the prosciutto is brown and crispy, 4 to 5 minutes. Serve warm.

• In a small bowl, combine honey and pumpkin pie spice. Drizzle honey evenly over each fig.
• Place in the oven on the top rack and roast for 8 to 10 minutes. Remove and serve immediately.

PROSCIUTTO-WRAPPED BREADSTICKS WITH FIG

Steps:

• Make the fig spread:
• In a small saucepan simmer the figs in the Port and the water with the sugar, covered, for 20 minutes and simmer the mixture, uncovered, until the liquid is reduced to about 1 tablespoon. In a food processor (preferably small) purée the fig mixture with the mustard and the lemon juice and transfer the spread to a small bowl. The fig spread may be made 1 week in advance, kept covered and chilled, and allowed to return to room temperature.
• Working with 1 prosciutto slice at a time, spread one side of each slice with 1/2 teaspoon of the fig spread, fold the slice lengthwise into a thin strip, and wrap it in a spiral around 1 of the breadsticks. The breadsticks should be wrapped no more than 30 minutes in advance.
