SOLLIÈS FIGS 500g

Figue de Solliès, specifically of the Bourjassote Noire variety, originate from Solliès-Pont a commune in the Var department in the picturesque Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur region of France.

These figs are highly regarded for their exceptional blend of tartness and sweetness. Unlike the common practice of harvesting underripe figs, these remarkable figs are meticulously hand-picked at full maturity, ensuring their unique flavour profile has fully developed. Furthermore, these figs are cultivated using organic methods, eschewing chemical fertilisers and pest control.

Characterised by their robust, thick skins these dark figs have a rich violet colour with black veins. You'll find juicy, glossy, deep red flesh with beige specks when you cut them open. Their smell is reminiscent of red fruits such as watermelon, honeydew melon, and strawberries.

These versatile figs go well with many dishes; working well with ham and various cheeses. They're great for homemade chutneys and pair nicely with gamey meats. Try them with Cinco Jotas Sliced Jamón De Belotta or baked with Camembert. They're also excellent in salads with a Goats Cheese or grilled alongside Quail.
