Second time I made this I used fig marmalade, it was a much bigger hit than with dried figs.
Antonia
quick and easy appetizer. I used fresh figs and it worked out great.
Antonia
Did this with the recommended fresh fig. Great to bring to someone's house as an appetizer. Used olive oil. Excellent. Quick and easy.
jennifer
Easy pretty and tasty. I added a good balsamic drizzle on top for a little punch
Nb
Gluten free too!
angelique
can use pear instead figs, or braesola instead of proscuitto

Good recipe, and I would recommend the fresh figs too, but I found the parm to be too sharp and will probably switch out manchego next time.
The Hipster
Manchego is superb. A drizzle of balsamic glaze and a pinch of red pepper flakes is pretty good too.
Atelier
Divine! This was brought to my house on Christmas eve, made with dried figs and the truffle oil, and since then I've made it twice to rave reviews!
Frank P
Try this before you serve it. My family did not find the combination of flavors to be very appetizing. Not horrible but we all said one piece and no seconds
Susan
Make sure prosciutto is not sliced too thin. Took a few tries to get the right balance of prosciutto/parm/fig.
Seattle Cook
Really easy and really good! I didn’t have fresh or dried figs, so I added a small dollop of fig preserves instead.
mls
Delicious and easy.
C. Pierson
Make this for a party and everyone LOVED them. Unfortunately, forgot the drizzle of olive oil but no one seemed to notice. So easy & delicious!

Presentation is everything! Please iron your shirt! I couldn’t stop looking at the wrinkles!
Leslie
I think it was table linen.
Susan
She is referencing Mark Bittman's bright yellow-green shirt in the video! :)
Lily Rose
I used dates instead of figs and instead of Parmesan, I used cheddar au porto because this is what I had and it was a pure delight.
Sarah
Good also with quince paste (membrillo) instead of dried fig which I found a little dry. Fig jam is good too but it tends to weep if you make them any time in advance.

Ashley, I love your comment! A project for ‘helpers’ that make things harder, rather than easier is a very good thing indeed!

I've not cooked with figs. In the video, the figs used in the goat cheese recipe looked different from the figs in the parmesan, prosciutto recipe. Are they the same variety?
AHW
This one is dried. The goat cheese app uses fresh figs.

I just made this Thursday using slices of Asian pears with a sliver of parmigiana and prosciutto. Ten people ate 30+ pieces. Big hit and very easy. Be sure to use really good prosciutto.
Ashley
Great stuff! Quick, easy. My concentration is such that managing "helpers" in the kitchen is hard. This recipe is excellent if you have unwanted helpers because they can handle it while you make more complicated things. I use half figs instead of thirds.
