Thanks for this recipe! I made it yesterday evening. Had a whole bag of dried figs I didn't know what else to do with. ^_^
Great! Always wondered the outcome of my recipes in someone else's kitchen coz I'm using an induction top where I can't really control the heat.
I never used figs in my life. It was this aunty at the morning market that taught me how to boil veggie soup with figs :)
They're yummy in hot cereal, soups and stews too!
Oh, another thing you could do with figs is make red date and fig tea. It's good for ladies. ;)
Will have to make that for the blog soon.
oh great, I'll try tomorrow. recipe please!
