Fresh figs

Recipe/eating ideas needed please, thanks.

They were reduced for a quick sale so I'm also wondering how long they'll keep and if they should be refrigerated to last a bit longer.

Split open, eat.

A more complicated idea: Split open, mix with natural yoghurt, eat.

Cut a cross in the top. Crumble a little bit of blue cheese in. Add some chopped walnuts and maybe some honey. Eat as is or grill for a bit.
I think you'll find it's a bit more complicated than that.

Ta, warm with honey and yoghurt sounds good.

I've got eight and am going to try freezing six for laters. If they're to be grilled/baked it won't make too much difference. I think.

+2.  Why try and improve them? Amazing fruit.

They're defnitely good with yoghurt - as I know from the Activia ones - until you have eight portions in eight days in a row.  I think I'll leave it a while before having another.

Our next door neighbours have a tree which produced sufficient fruit this year for them to make jam. They gave us a pot. It's OK, but I don't think it's as good as the pot of goosegog we gave them.
