This one is a crowd favorite. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Maybe 15 years ago someone gifted me a food basket and it had some fig jam in it. I tried some on crackers and it was pretty good but it was a big jar and I was wondering what I could possibly do to use up all this fig jam. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
I was having some friends over for some pizza in a few weeks and I started to brainstorm how I could integrate the jam into a pizza. I knew the jam was really sweet so I needed a savory counterpart so that was the goat cheese and I didn’t think a tomato sauce would mesh well with the jam so I made a savory pesto sauce to use as the base. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
here’s the fun part – I didn’t test it out. <\/strong> I ran out of time and just made the pizzas and watched people for their reactions. Fortunately for me almost everyone had the same reaction ‘This in interesting let me try it and see.. ohhhh my GOD give me more!’ <\/p>\n\n\n\n This is a pizza that stays in the rotation and when people come over for pizza nights they almost always request it so I keep a jar of fig jam in the fridge next to the peso on the off chance I want to make one of these pizzas on short notice!<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" This one is a crowd favorite.
