In this case figs.

I'm thinking of a tarte aux figues, with ground almonds.  A quick "google" brings up plenty of recipes, in French.  Anyone got a recipe in English?

Are your figs as soft as our(neighbour)s?

They are too soft for ANY handling; I term them liquid fig. I'd really only use them for compôte or crumble.
