I’m vegetarian so no lardo for me, but the pairing of chilli and figs is genius. Maybe I’d have to add a few flakes of sea salt to make up for no lardo.
Beautiful Harrison! My friend who lives in LA has told me numerous times about this restaurant so it’s pretty cool to be able to create on of their dishes at home.
I’m a lower salt cook, so I have a collection of chili flakes to add depth of flavor. I think I would toast some red pepper flakes, Kashmir or Korean chili flakes, and a pinch of smoked paprika then pour some warm oil as a shortcut - I love the idea of sweet figs and the heat of chili
Thanks for this recipe. I will try !
cheers Manon!
rustic canyon is my favorite restaurant in the world maybe
literally the definition of dy-na-mite with the fig intro
thanks Jess!!
Delicious! I always wonder how to plate figs. I love how they look on the table but never know what to do with them. Will be trying this!
Glad you liked it Helen!

Oh no way!! Some of my favorite chefs (esp Evan Funke) have risen through the ranks working here

This is a really nice pairing. Have you tried making the chili oil or did you find a good source?
I don't make mine I just use the oil from canned calabrian chilis
Have you made your own mix??
