I HAVE FRESHLY PICKED FIGS HERE....... the only thing is i thought even if they weren't quite ready yet, they would still ripen on the counter---
they are still green, and when i cut one open they are just not sweet or sappy enough yet like figs should be.
east coast figs may have been different than these california ones, because i don't remember questioning the readiness.
Still, i have bunches now that i don't know what to do with.
THE QUESTION -- how can i get them to ripen? paper bag? on the window sill, on the ledge directly in the sun??
please let me know what you think, as i would hate to throw them all away!
thank you.............
