The photo is just perfect. It makes my mouth water. The information was very informative and the recipe quite simple. I have a different outlook on figs now. I will have to make a visit to my parents fig trees and see if there are anymore treasures. I really found this to be a very interesting segment on figs. The photo is just perfect.

Going out to the tree early in the morning and picking a ripe, sweet fig and eating it right there and then is a taste memory that remains with me long after leaving my garden, and Austin. For the peak of ripeness, look for those beads of sweetness that bleed from the base of the fig. Mmmmmmmm. Thanks Beth for recalling that memory!
