WHY DRIED FIGS: While fresh figs are available for a short period and are hard to store, the dried figs are easy to store, have a much longer shelf life, and are more accessible. Apart from that, they are also nutritionally similar to the fresh ones. Although some water-soluble vitamins are lost in the drying process, the fat-soluble vitamins, minerals, and other beneficial compounds increase during the process.
TASTY: Dried figs will fascinate you with their deliciously nutty flavor, concentrated sweetness, and chewy texture.
HOW TO CONSUME: You can enjoy dried figs as a healthy and delicious snack and appetizer during snack times or before the meal. Or, you can use them in savory and sweet recipes. For instance, try pairing dried figs with goat cheese and caramelized onions for an exceptional treat. They can also be baked into bread, muffins, and biscuits, or chopped up in rice dishes and served with meats. Using a pair of scissors is one of the easiest ways to cut up figs. If dried figs become too hard, soak them in water to reconstitute them.
DRIED FIGS IN OLIVE OIL: We have a perfectly healthy recipe from the famous polymath Avicenna. Put 40 pieces of dried figs in a jar and then pour olive oil onto the top of the jar. Close it and keep it for 40 days, during these days the figs will absorb a lot of olive oil. Eat one fig before every meal.
