Louisiana’s Bounty
Vermilion Parish is gifted with bushy fig trees prolific with figs waiting to picked every year. I’ve tried that fun excursion several times. I love cooking the figs, enjoying the aroma and sometimes tasting. I don’t eat raw figs.
My mom taught me to freeze the delicious cooked figs in containers the size you will use for your next baking day. A doubled bag portion of frozen figs lasts a long time, years.
