California White Figs
Grown, harvested and dried in Central California, our delicate and lightly sweet Dried White Figs make a tasty addition to your healthy lifestyle. White Calimyrna figs came to California from ancient Turkey, and while you’ll find them in numerous Turkish recipes, you can easily incorporate them into your American diet. These plump and soft fruits are high in dietary fiber, are a good source of antioxidants and are naturally fat-free and GMO-free, making them a nice alternative to sugared treats. They’re also a source of copper, manganese and fiber - nutrients that are beneficial in blood health, tissue and cartilage health and heart health. Try splitting them and filling them with soft goat cheese for an appetizer, use them on roasted salmon with caramelized onions, or chop and use them in scones, muffins, biscotti or in your favorite fig bar recipe.
