Love and figs

We are so lucky to have access to a fig tree laden with fruit.
This was one of the figs I opened last night -  a fig heart. Sweet, huh?
Fig and ginger jam, caramelised figs, and our very favourite
figs poached in syrup with vanilla and cointreau.
Happy valentine's day x

  1. You are lucky indeed to have a fig tree.
    I paid proper money for figs yesterday which i put on top of my sweet potato and haloumi salad.

  2. the fig is such a sexy fruit, i think. anyway, we love to pick figs, slice them in half, top with a small piece of strong cheese, like brie, melt in oven for a few, then spread on grainy crackers....heavenly.

    enjoy your weekend my friend!
