Salade de figues

Salade de figues is a traditional salad originating from the region of Languedoc. The salad is usually made with a combination of ripe figs, endive, onions, lemon juice, olive oil, red wine vinegar, salt, pepper, and sugar. The figs are cut into quarters, and then eighths. The endive is shredded and arranged on a plate. The fig slices are placed on top, followed by sliced onions. As a final touch, the bittersweet salad is dressed with a mixture of olive oil, lemon juice, red wine vinegar, and sugar. It's then seasoned with salt and pepper and served at room temperature or slightly chilled.
