Will figs continue to ripen after picking?
)
September 21st, 2012
One more in the ripening-fruit series (strawberries, pears).
I’ve only just discovered a taste for black figs and don’t know how to treat them.
The first batch were soft, red, and juicy inside, and the skin felt as soft and delicate as a baby’s flesh. It took no expertise to recognize that they were in prime condition.
The second batch I bought is paler and firmer inside and not as sweet. They were sold in a sealed plastic box, and I couldn’t touch them before I bought them.
Will they ripen further if left at room temperature, or will they just go bad? They’re in the refrigerator now.
