Womanity Fig Chutney Recipe
Chef's Note
It is always better to prepare a chutney about two weeks before serving to allow the spices and flavors to develop.
Pair this chutney with my Sea bream tartare and cocoa bean mousseline, recipe inspired by the new interpretation of Womanity, the last fragrance of Thierry Mugler.
