Fresh figs are easy to find right now in local markets. California Mission, Brown Turkey, Kadota, Calimyrna and other varieties are sweet and juicy and ready to be devoured.

I love figs, eaten in hand, made into a compote or as a sweet addition to a savory dish. A sweet treat to serve over ice cream or pound cake is Hibiscus Scented Fig Compote, a simple to make dessert sauce.

One of my favorite ways to prepare figs are these Fig and Cambozola Stuffed Pork Chops. If you want to impress someone, make them this pork chop entree.
