Beer makes batters better, meat more tender, and sauces more flavorful.


18 fresh figs
8 ounces cream cheese
2 ounces sliced almonds
salt and black pepper
1 egg yolk
1 teaspoon pastis
Cut the top of each fig, creating a "lid", but let it remain connected to the fig "body".
Using a small teaspoon, empty the fig contents to a bowl. Add the remaining ingredients to the bowl, mix well with a fork. Fill each fig plentifully, so that the "lid" doesn't close. Arrange the filled figs on an oven tray, cover and refrigerate.
Transfer to a very hot oven 15 minutes before serving.
Remove from oven after 10 minutes. Let cool for 5 minutes, and serve.
