Frozen Figs

Frozen Figs

Do you know about frozen figs?

Now you do.

These beauties have started appearing at the market again, so get them while you can! Fig season goes pretty quick — there’s a short season in early summer and then another burst late summer through fall.

I discovered this cool treat when I was in Italy last summer. On a whim, I tossed a basket of luscious ripe figs in the freezer. Mind. Blown. The jammy sweetness freezes into an almost creamy sorbet-like texture. And then there’s that color. Hello, gorgeous.

Frozen grapes…pshhh…child’s play.

Frozen figs, grown and sexy.
