Fresh figs are a delicacy prized for their unique flavour and luscious texture. Their soft, delicate skin ranges in colour from deep purple to green, enclosing a tender interior filled with tiny, crunchy seeds. The flesh is sweet and honeyed, with subtle fruity and floral undertones. The texture is a delightful contrast of smooth and crunchy, offering a luxurious mouthfeel that enhances both sweet and savoury dishes. Often associated with Mediterranean cuisine, fresh figs are a versatile fruit that can be enjoyed raw or cooked. They’re packed with fibre, antioxidants and essential vitamins, making them a delicious and healthful treat.
