Fracking News

I have been defeated

July 5, 2012 By TXsharon

My fig tree has defeated me. Anna Ruckman did not raise a granddaughter to waste figs so I have also failed Anna.

I was unable to pick them all today and I still have this many from yesterday. My neighbors are no longer answering the door.

Wine is all I can think of.

    Any recommendations on how to make fig wine would be appreciated.

    Sharon why not dehydrate some ? Then you can reconstitute them and saute ‘ up for a warm goat cheese and fig topped salad in the winter ? I will look up about the wine in some of my canning books ….I have also successfully cut them in half and frozen them ….

    as Calin suggested dehydrate them they’ll last a long long time.
    a simple google search turned up this

      I found the recipe but I need the equipment and the terminology and ingredients are unfamiliar to me. Making wine is not a simple process.

      Also dehydrating figs does not always work. I’ve read a lot about it. Sometimes to make sure all the nematodes or killed you have to also freeze them. That further degrades the nutrients and my freezer is already full of figs.
