Figs are among the oldest fruits. Figs are wonderful straight off the tree And what’s really nice you can also eat the peel. Many Cajun love making fig preserves – Great with bread, corn bread, or over cream cheese as an appetizer. Another sweet use is fig ice cream – so good. Works best with very ripe figs. This recipe is an adaptation from Cooks Tour of the Mississippi recipe
