Figs are produced by one of the oldest fruit trees in the Mediterranean and they are entwined into the Lebanese culinary heritage. Our whole fresh figs are lightly cooked and steeped in sweet syrup to produce an intense deep-flavored treat. They are a flavorsome alternative to honey while offering a wide range of minerals. They can also add a surprising note to breakfast classics, like pancakes, waffles, French toast and hot cereals. They pair well with mature cheddar and goat cheeses.
