Fig Varieties Include
- Black Mission Figs (8 oz.) – Sweet yet mild, mellow yet rich…Black Mission Figs deserve their reputation as the most consistently delicious fresh fig available. While they have a flavor all their own, the taste could be described as a mix of strawberry, melon and banana flavors, with a pleasantly jammy, creamy texture. Figs can be enjoyed just as they are, or prepared and cooked. They make an excellent addition to cheese platters and a welcome addition to salads with spicy greens. They are wonderful for homemade jams and preserves as well as cakes and muffins. Stuff figs with cheese or ham, or slice and include in grilled cheese sandwiches. Dip in chocolate for a luscious treat.
- Heirloom Figs (8 oz.) – Beautiful, intriguing, delicious…fresh figs are a true seasonal treasure, and nothing beats figs from California’s Central Valley. Our Heirloom Figs will contain whichever varieties our grower thinks taste best every week, and may include Black Mission, Tiger Stripe, Kadota, Sierra or Brown Turkey figs.
- Tiger Figs (8 oz.) – Prized as one of the most flavorful varieties in the marketplace, Tiger Fig is a unique fruit, not only because of its natural tiger stripes but also for its tasty insides. The raspberry-citrus flavor on the inside of the fuchsia flesh and the green and yellow striped skin on the outside makes the Tiger Fig unlike any other variety; they are harvested late because they take all summer to develop high sugar content. Once fully ripe, the fruit has a rich, jam-like texture and consistency. Tiger Figs are great for drying, making into preserves, or just eating out of hand.
