- 1/2 cup toasted, salted walnuts
- 1/2 lbs fresh figs

INSTRUCTIONS
- Lightly sprinkle the walnuts with water, and salt liberally. Place in a toaster oven, or conventional oven (350 F) on medium high, for about 5 minutes, or until nicely toasted.
- Arrange the fresh figs, cut in quarters, around the burrata cheese, drizzle all with honey, and top with the salted toasted walnuts. Optionally sprinkle some flaky sea salt on top.
