It all started when…

For me, the Spiced Syrian Figs has always been the “night time jam”. With cheeses and good red wine and the fire a blaze.

A teaspoon or two over a teacup of good vanilla ice-cream late at night, when no one is watching.

Tagine or Stew Add-in:

Stir into Middle Eastern-style stews or tagines for added sweetness and complexity, especially with lamb or chicken.

Richards Cheese Pairing:

Enjoy with soft cheeses like brie or labneh, or stronger cheeses like blue or gouda. The sweetness and spice contrast beautifully with the creamy and sharp flavours.

Flatbread Topping:

Spread on a flatbread with goat cheese, walnuts, and rocket.

Roast Chicken Stuffing:

Add teaspoon or two to your Roast Chicken stuffing, thank me later.
