Fig
Description: The fig is an emblematic fruit of the Mediterranean basin, celebrated for its smooth flesh, its small crunchy seeds, and its almost honey-like sweet flavor. Botanically speaking, in September, the season is in full swing for autumn varieties, notably the prestigious “Violette de Solliès” (PDO), recognized for its purple skin, large size, and aromas of red fruits and spices. The ultimate fruit of sensuality, it can be enjoyed plain, roasted with honey, or as an accompaniment to savory products.
