Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Slice the baguette into 1/2-inch thick rounds and place on a baking sheet. Drizzle with 1 tablespoon of extra virgin olive oil and sprinkle with salt. Bake for 5-7 minutes or until lightly toasted.

While the baguette slices are baking, slice the Jamón ibérico into thin strips. Cut the Manchego cheese into 1/4-inch thick slices. Measure out 1/4 cup of fig jam.
