We are so lucky to have them, I know! And it’s a good thing I love figs too! Ripe figs should be very sweet and soft, and the inside should almost be like a thick jam consistency. I actually prefer mine slightly less ripe with a little bite.

Believe me they are really hard to find in Missouri. After killing two, the third is growing small fruit on the oldest stem. I think I finally have a ripe one. Can you describe what the fruit is supposed to taste like?

Really? I never would have thought of that! We usually just eat them whole without peeling them (when we get them from our garden), but I have to try this trick. Thanks!

Easy to use and none of the fig gets wasted.

I’ve recently harvested approx 300+ figs and have just finished making the second batch of fresh fig preserves. I had intended to come close to something my grandmother made 40 years ago, just w/out sugar. That’s right, no sugar added. 100% all natural fig preserves.
BTW: due to demand New Twig continuously grows ( this naturally sweetened variety ) fig trees for those who long for growing their own.
Have an Excellent & Blessed Day!!

Since we grow our own (which means there’s no need to worry about pesticides) I just eat them right from the tree!

Have you ever tasted a fresh fig?

Most people haven’t! I also love fig bars but I don’t eat them often because they are usually laden with sugar. With the fresh ones, you know what you’re eating!
