Cómo preparar Fig Flowers
- Wash and gently dry the figs.
- Stand each fig upright and carefully slice from the stem end into 5 or 6 wedges, cutting almost all the way through to the bottom, but leaving the base intact.
- Gently separate the wedges to create a flower-like shape.
- Arrange the fig flowers on a serving plate.
- In a small saucepan, simmer the orange juice over medium-low heat until reduced to a syrupy consistency, about 5-10 minutes. (Skip this step if using orange marmalade.)
- Drizzle the orange juice reduction or marmalade over the fig flowers.
- In a medium bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with an electric mixer on medium speed for about 2 minutes, or until light and fluffy.
- Add the honey, whipping cream, and sour cream to the cream cheese mixture.
- Beat on medium speed for 1 minute, until well combined.
- Dollop a spoonful of the cream cheese mixture onto the center of each fig flower.
- Garnish with orange zest, if desired.
- Serve immediately and enjoy!
