Figs

Figs are soft, pear-shaped fruits with thin skin that can be green, purple or brown. Inside is sweet, soft flesh filled with small edible seeds. The taste is honey-like, mildly sweet and slightly floral. Figs are often eaten fresh, but also dried or used in desserts, jam, salads and savory dishes such as with cheese or meat. They are popular for their rich sweetness and soft, unique texture.
