Top 8 Fig Recipes

The "fruits of the gods" are now ripe and waiting for us to turn them into the most delicious dishes. Here are the best recipes!

The fig is one of the oldest domesticated plants in the world – it is thus no wonder that it is mentioned in countless legends and is said to have very magical powers. Not only is it said to have an aphrodisiac effect, figs also have a high mineral content and are rich in potassium, calcium, iron, zinc and phosphorus, as well as vitamin B1. The fig is also said to have a positive effect on digestion. Apart from that, its radiant red flesh alone makes every dish an absolute eye-catcher – not to mention its unique fragrance and sweet taste. Need any more reasons to get yourself some fresh figs? Here are our favourite fig recipes.
