We had a fantastic crop of figs this year, best ever by far. They're all finished now, though. I've got a lot of fig jam, spiced relish and compote made. Yours look lovely - your garden is very sheltered, perhaps that's why they've held on.
Dear Z. I think you're right about our garden. It is very sheltered, and I think that's why we got a few figs after we'd quite made up our minds that we'd have to wait until next year.
Beautiful Composition, that split one is making hungry for figs!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Rough. Considering the time of year they were harvested, they were nice, tasty, sweet figs.

ReplyDeleteDear Z,
ReplyDeleteI can recommend fig gin as an irresistible addition to your culinary practises.
Not tried that, Crowbard, thanks.
