| Home made jam for diabetics. | | No description available Not yet rated | | One of my favorite foods of all-time growing up. It was what I had for many snacks and even dinner sometimes. | |
| | Figs are in season at the end of June and early July, and they are delicious and high in fiber. Ask any bird they will tell you it is so. To select the perfect fig the trick is picking a ripe one - when it is yielding to finger pressure, it is ripe. When it is mushy, it is past ripe (but I still pick them and can them). Green means "oooooo, not ripe yet and you won't be happy eating it" so don't pick it, but a rich, dark, purply brown color means "you're gonna love it".
My parents always made me wear a long sleeve shirt and long jeans to avoid contact with the fig "milk". Sticky and unbelievably itchy...ahhh I see this has happened to you.
