  I made this recipe for the first time for a dinner party-- always a mistake! I thought all the ingredients sounded good together-- figs, walnuts, celeriac and goat's cheese. However, there was far too much balsamic vinegar and not enough olive oil. The vinegar completely destroyed the flavour of all the other ingredients. Next day, we added a lot more olive oil to the figs and dressing, thereby rendering it almost edible.
