This elegant pickled fig, robiola and pistachio oil crostini is a sophisticated vegetarian starter that beautifully balances sweet and savoury notes. The sharp tang of the red wine vinegar pickling liquid cuts through the richness of the creamy Robiola cheese, while the dried figs provide a chewy, honeyed contrast. It is a wonderful choice for an autumn dinner party or a light weekend lunch when you want something a little more refined than standard bruschetta.
Preparing the pistachio oil at home adds a luxurious, nutty finish that elevates the simple ciabatta base. If you prefer a milder flavour, you can substitute the dried figs for fresh ones when they are in season, simply skipping the simmering process. Serve these warm as an appetiser alongside a crisp glass of white wine for a truly Mediterranean feel.
