    OMG, This was outstanding! The only dates I ever liked was from a Tapas restaurant. They make dates wrapped in bacon and serve with a red pepper butter sauce. I have to order 2 and have them served last as they are so sweet I eat them as my dessert. This equals that is every way. Everyone was eating them by the spoonfull. Excellent!

    LOVED this! Roasting the dates completely changes the profile of the date - texture is silkier and the flavor takes on caramel overtones. I served this dish over arugula and an heirloom tomato wedge as a salad/appetizer course and it rocked.

    Taste to adjust for acidity - I added extra lemon juice. I was also a little generous on the liquid when making the pan sauce so as to dub as a great warm dressing for the salad.

    The almonds absorb the liquid quickly so serve immediately to get the benefit of the delicious sauce over whatever you want to serve with it.

    Thanks Michael! You Rock!
