  • About
Calimyrna figs, also called Smyrna figs, are light green; Black Mission figs and Black Spanish figs (also called Brown Turkey) are purple. All figs are sweet when ripe and soft and delicate in texture. They should be plump and soft, without spoilage or sour odor.
Keep refrigerated (although firm, unripe figs can be left at room temperature, spread in one layer, for a few days to ripen slightly). Rinse and drain, handling carefully. Trim off hard stem ends.
Percentage yield: 95% (80–85% if peeled)
