Ingredients for a tarte of around 25 cm of diameter:

• 200 gr. flour,
• 150 gr. of butter,
• 1 kg. of figs,
• 300 gr. of sugar,
• cinnamon,
• Balsamic Vinegar of Modena ‘Anfora Cara’ BIO,
• salt, eggs white.

Preparation: To prepare the dough for the tarte brisée mix the flour and butter (fridge cold) and cut into small pieces, along with a pinch of salt. Add 3-4 spoons of cold water to compact the paste, then wrap it in a plastic film and put it in refrigerator for 30 minutes. Chop the figs, place them together in a saucepan with sugar, butter, and ground cinnamon and some drops of  Balsamic Vinegar of Modena ‘Anfora Cara’ BIO. Cook it slowly for about a hour until they reach a beautiful golden colour while still soft.

If the syrup obtained will be too liquid, remove the figs, and cock it fast until it gets thicker.

Then brush the tarte that you have stretched and baked into the oven around ten minutes with eggs white,  prepare the figs inside and cover them with their syrup, then bake the tarte for other ten minutes.

Serve it  warm, even accompanied with Chantilly cream.
