I didn’t have to go far!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Chef spoke with the kitchen staff and they kindly provided me with a tasting menu for the evening. One of the dishes was this tomato salad with wine-washed cheese (krasotyri) of Kos, dried figs and croutons.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The dressing was outstanding and I asked chef for the recipe – he was kind enough to share.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What I have here is a unique dressing that will have your guests guessing and asking you for the recipe. It’s an east meets west dressing with some Asian ingredients like Miso in the mix. Other ingredients of note are freeze dried figs and a goat cheese stuffed with figs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Try it…you’re gonna love it!<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-wpzoom-recipe-card-block-recipe-card
