This is one of Carluccio's enduring products, with Anthony Carluccio selecting the producer himself.
Figs are picked at the ultimate point of ripeness in the orchards of our producers farm in Alba. Within hours of harvest they are simply cooked in a pot with the sole addition of cane sugar, a simple and ancient method that enhances the wonderful flavour of the figs.
155g grams of figs are used to obtain every 100g of this splendid jam.
What makes our Fig Jam so special isn't just the fruit, but the rhythm of its creation. Our producer works in harmony with nature, harvesting only when the fruit reaches its absolute peak of ripeness.
Purity Over Plenty: Quality always takes precedence over quantity. We only produce what the land is willing to give each season.
The Morning Mist: The figs are harvested strictly by hand in the early hours of the dawn. By picking them while they are still cool and plump, we ensure the heat of the midday sun never touches the delicate skins, preserving their natural minerals and fibre.
Speed is Essential: To lock in the nutritional value and vibrant taste, the fruit is processed manually within mere hours of leaving the tree.
This versatile preserve makes a stunning breakfast spread with croissant, fresh bread or toast, brings sweetness to a cheese board pairing well with sheep or goats cheeses. Try on a pizza, like on our restaurant menu, with goats cheese.
