1)  Stuff them with Brown Sugar and Cointreau and slowly roast them in
an oven, baste with a herb glaze.

2)  Make Fig Wine / Port / Brandy with them.  High sugar levels, with
a nice taste makes for a supurb brew.  Watch out for the fig sap (high
in latexs) that might taint the brew.


An 'Insanely Jealous' Drake Morgan,


ps.  I had a garden with two huge fig trees but move on before I
joined the SCA.
