Chef's Tips

For an extra touch of flavor, you can toast the walnuts lightly in a dry pan for 2-3 minutes over medium-low heat before chopping. This enhances their nutty aroma. Serve warm or at room temperature.
↔

Easy Substitutions

If dried figs are unavailable, dried apricots can be used as a substitute, though the flavor profile will be different. Almonds or pistachios can replace walnuts for a different texture and taste.
