Fig And Tomato Salad

"Good pairing is an art. In food, as in marriage, compatibility is important and the superficially similar do not always make the best bedfellows. Whoever first thought of spreading butter on bread? Genius. Tomatoes are easy-going types that will get on well with anything. In fact possibly only chocolate won’t make a good pair with them - chocolate generally doesn’t work with vegetables and fruit that masquerade as vegetables, our hero being one of those. But other than that, you can throw them at various foodstuffs and they won’t suffer rejection."
