With our own Sun Dried Figs, locally produced Almonds and Carob powder our Fig Cheese is a classic example of food preservation from times past and a great lesson for the future.
As well as 50% Dried Figs and 25% locally grown Almonds it also contains Natural Cane Sugar, Carob powder, Anise, Cinnamon & Lemon zest, all ingredients essential to maintaning the authenticity of this dried Portuguese delicacy.
The Fig Cheese is created by initially heating water in a pan and adding all ingredients until a thick, syrupy liquid is formed. Then chopped and roasted Figs and ground Almonds are added. The mixture is then stirred together before being poured out into moulds to set.
