Dauphine fig
A large purple fig with red flesh, melting and very sweet.
The Dauphine fig is a large fig with dark purple skin and red-pink flesh, tender and juicy. It offers a very sweet flavour, with a melting texture and fine crunchy seeds. A fragile fruit, it is best enjoyed fully ripe, when the skin gives slightly. A safe choice for cheese plates and autumn desserts.
