Servings: 8

 

Ingredients:

¼ C unsalted butter

½ C light brown sugar

10 fresh ripe figs, tips removed, halved

3 tsp. finely chopped fresh rosemary, divided in half

4 to 5 tbsp. walnut pieces

1 C flour, sifted (sifting creates a lighter cake)

1 tsp. baking powder

1/8 tsp. salt

3 large eggs

1 C granulated sugar

2 tbsp fresh lemon juice

1 tsp. lemon extract

2 tbsp. citron vodka

zest of 1 lemon

1 tsp. vanilla extract

Equipment:

oven

baking pan

bowl

spatula

toothpicks

wire rack

knife

frying pan

microwave

Cooking instruction summary:

Position a rack in the center of the oven, and preheat to 350 degrees. Add butter to a 9 inch round baking pan and place inside of a warm oven until melted, about 5 minutes. Remove from oven and sprinkle brown sugar evenly over the butter. Add figs, flesh side up. Sprinkle with 1 tsp of the rosemary. Fill in the nooks and crannies with walnut pieces. In a medium bowl sift flour, baking powder, and salt together. In a separate bowl beat eggs with sugar at medium speed until creamy. Because I liked this cake better with the eggs added whole rather than separating and adding the egg whites at the end, I beat the eggs and sugar for an additional 3 minutes until they were frothy and small bubbles formed. Add the flour mixture to the creamed mixture and beat until well combined. Pour cake batter evenly over the fruit and smooth with a spatula. Bake for 35 to 40 minutes or until cake is golden and a toothpick into the center comes out clean. Place on a wire rack to cool for 10 minutes. Run a blunt knife around the edges of the pan to loosen the cake. Invert carefully onto a plate. Serve warm or at room temperature. Leftovers are yummy heated for about 15 seconds in the microwave! Delicious with a bold cup of java or a cool glass of Chardonnay like this one Edna Valley 2010 Paragon. Crisp, citrusy with a hint of peach and a small amount of spice. Great paring with the strong lemon base of this cake!

Food Trivia

The fig is also a fertility symbol and the Arab association with male genitals is so strong that the original word 'fig' is considered improper.

Food Joke

The Passover test [My thanks to Jeff G for the following] Sean is waiting for a bus when another man joins him at the bus stop. After 20 minutes of waiting, Sean takes out a sandwich from his lunch box and starts to eat. But noticing the other man watching, Sean asks, "Would you like one? My wife has made me plenty." "Thank you very much, but I must decline your kind offer," says the other man, "I’m Rabbi Levy." "Nice to meet you, Rabbi," says Sean, "but my sandwiches are alright for you to eat. They only contain cheese. There’s no meat in them." "It’s very kind of you," says Rabbi Levy, "but today we Jews are celebrating Passover. It would be a great sin to eat a sandwich because during the 8 days of Passover, we cannot eat bread. In fact it would be a sin comparable to the sin of adultery." "OK," says Sean, "but it’s difficult for me to understand the significance of what you’ve just said." Many weeks later, Sean and Rabbi Levy meet again. Sean says, "Do you remember, Rabbi, that when we last met, I offered you a sandwich which you refused because you said eating bread on Passover would be as great a sin as that of adultery?" Rabbi Levy replies, "Yes, I remember saying that." "Well, Rabbi," says Sean, "that day, I went over to my mistress’s apartment and told her what you said. We then tried out both the sins, but I must admit, we just couldn’t see the comparison."
