Description
Figs, originally native to Turkey, constitute approximately 70% of the nation’s total fig production, a significant portion of which is dried and exported worldwide. Turkey’s warm climate provides an optimal environment for fig cultivation, contributing to around 40% of the global fig production annually. The traditional method involves sun-drying whole Turkish figs, making them well-suited for various culinary applications such as cooking, chocolate dipping, or blending with nuts and other dried fruits.
