A note about serious food allergies
The sharp acid of the balsamic and deep sweetness of fig (it’s a learned, multiple post-grad degree sweetness, not a sweetness that watches reality television) are a culinary melding of masters here, adorning their best vehicle, succulent pork. You'll luxuriate in the amazing flavors, that you'll put together yourself, and find your plate clean before you head off to watch The Bach--- we mean PBS!
