This wonderful sweet-and-sour sauce is made by Menu with diced figs, Marsala wine, a dash of apple vinegar, and select spices. Ideal as an accompaniment for both matured (Grana Padano, Parmigiano Reggiano, Asiago, Pecorino Romano) and fresh (Ricotta, Mascarpone) cheeses, it is also delightful spread over deli meats and poultry.
Menu is a specialty food products company that began life as a salami factory run by Romolo Barbieri in Cavezzo (province of Modena), Italy in the 1930's. Over the years, the company, now run by Romolo's son, Rodolfo, has expanded to create quality Italian food products for fine restaurants around the world.
