Dried Turkish figs 10 x 1 kg

More appearance than reality? The fig is a so-called "false fruit"! This means that it does not form from a flower, but from inflorescence (which is turned inwards). The actual fruits are the tiny seeds in the flesh. What is absolutely not just appearance: its heavenly taste! The fig does not only look juicy, delicious and beautiful, but also convinces through and through with a honey-sweet aroma. By the way, this flavour comes out even better in the dried version. That's why we have prepared a 1 kg pack of this sweet sin for you. Believe us, you will love these little fruits! Buy 1 kg of Turkish figs now!

True art: the fig leaf

KoRo history lesson: The fig is the first plant mentioned by name in the Bible. Surely you have seen paintings or statues from earlier times in which the ladies and gentlemen are covered with nothing more than a fig leaf. The leaf of the fig tree was used in visual art to cover the genitals of naked persons. By covering one's own nakedness, it served to overcome feelings of shame and was even added afterwards to paintings or during the restoration of antique statues. Crazy, isn't it?

KoRo's dried figs are a hit

Luckily, our bulk pack contains several figs, because they disappear faster than you can say "fig". The noble fig originally comes from the Arab region, but is now cultivated throughout the Mediterranean. When ripe, the fig has a stunning colour: blue-purple and beautifully red and yellow in the middle. This typical colour changes to brown when dried, but this does not diminish its honey-like taste. The fruit is in season from late summer to late autumn; fortunately, in our shop it is available all year round. Drying preserves the delicious fruity flavour. During drying, the fruit sugar and juice crystallise, which gives the dried fig its delicious sweetness. This not only goes well with desserts, but also harmonises excellently with savoury food.
