The first time I had blintzes, I was 9 or 10. To say the least, I was not really a fan. I think I was expecting something like cheesecake in a pancake. Now that I’m (much) older, I can enjoy the subtleties and nuances of the flavors, like in these Fig and Port Wine Blintzes recipe.
This Fig and Port Wine Blintzes recipe is the perfect addition to your Passover desserts. Dried figs are preferred, as fresh figs make the filling too soggy and they have a more concentrated flavor.
