Storage
Allow roasted figs to cool completely before storing to prevent condensation. Place figs in an airtight container and store in the fridge for up to 3 days.
Avoid stacking roasted figs during storage, as their texture might cause them to stick together and become mushy when separated.
Tips and Tricks
Figs: Choose ripe, plump and slightly soft to touch, but firm figs as they caramelise fabulously.
Sweetness: Figs are naturally sweet, so adjust the maple syrup depending on their sweetness and ripeness.
Cut Side Up: Arrange cut side up for better caramelisation and attractive presentation.
