Zest and juice of 1 lemon, divided
Kosher salt and freshly cracked black pepper

8 toasted crostini
Directions:
In a medium bowl, combine the goat cheese, olive oil, honey and half of the tarragon, shallots and lemon zest. Season with salt and pepper.

In a separate bowl, toss the figs with the lemon juice, saba vinegar and remaining tarragon, shallots and lemon zest. Season with salt and pepper.
