Myf- Thanks for visiting my website. Dried figs are my favorite dried fruits and they can be eaten as a whole fruit. If I have no time for breakfast in the mornings, I eat e few dried figs with a cup of tea and it’s definitely so healthy as it helps your digestion system. Also, it can be added in cakes or even you can make a dessert from them. You can find the recipe of dried fig dessert here if you like: http://www.giverecipe.com/fig-dessert.html

Hi, thanks for sharing about figs. I’ve always wondered, how do you eat dried figs – eat it as a whole fruit or someway else?

I’ve been craving figs for a while now, but haven’t come across any where I normally shop. I even have a dessert using figs that I’ve had to put on hold until I can locate them. I loved this post, and I envy your proximity to so many of these wonderful fruits. In Japan, too, people often start drying fruits for the winter months. I’m most used to seeing orange-red persimmons hanging on strings from the rooftops of people’s homes. It’s a beautiful sight!

I love these little tidbits about turkish culture. I found the idiom regarding the fig tree quite interesting! We do have a fig tree in our garden (planted by ourselves) so it is with great relief (I hope) that our home won’t collapse.

Oysterculture- I sometimes add them diced in cakes, but never tried in bread. It must be great!

Reeni- I’m sure dried figs and cheese make a great couple, I should try them together.Thanks.

I eat dried figs everyday! Usually all on their own as a snack and sometimes with a little bit of cheese. I love them!

Tangled Noodle- we also eat these whole dried figs stuffing it with walnuts.And it becomes more tasty and gives energy. But as you said, planting a fig tree in someone’s yard has a negative meaning in Turkish.

Jenn- I hope you can find and have that delicious fruit.

Daily Spud- Also in Turkey, not every region has a suitable climate for figs. They love hot weather.

Lisa- Its roots are really strong.

Sophie- Luckily noone’s attempted to plant a fig tree in our garden. lol.

Lauren- I also love fig trees, especially when they are full of fruit.
