Trader Joe's Organic Turkish Dried Figs, 283g

TJ's Organic Turkish Dried Figs come to TJ's directly from a supplier in Turkey, the world’s leading fig-producing country. They use the Smyrna variety of fig, known for its seedy, pink flesh and pale green skin. (Fun fact: when this fig variety was initially transported to California for production, its name was changed: Calimyrna figs are the same as Smyrna figs, but grown in California rather than Turkey.) Here, that pink, seedy interior takes on a crispy texture, and delivers the expected figgy flavours with aplomb. These are great for snacking anytime, excellent in a bowl of cereal, and will liven up a cheese & charcuterie board on both the flavour and texture fronts.
