Figs –

Bursa figs, which are considered one of the finest varieties of fig in the world. Grown in the fertile soils of the Bursa region in northwestern Turkey, these figs are often called the “queen of figs.” Their deep purple skin hides a soft, ruby-red centre that is naturally sweet and rich, Bursa figs have been cultivated for centuries, with harvests usually in late summer. Turkey is the world’s largest fig producer, and Bursa is at the heart of that tradition. They are best enjoyed fresh off the stem, paired with cheese, added to salads, or even baked into desserts, their flavour is versatile and unforgettable.
