The "castex" is medium in size. Its skin is smooth, fine, of a pale yellow color mixed with gray and tinged with purple at the end of ripening. Its flesh is very light red, almost pink, the seeds are extremely small.
It is from this excellent fig that we prepare original recipes: fig pasta, jelly and chutney.
Jelly and chutney go with foie gras, cold meat or cheese as you wish.
