Drat! I didn't save the 'recipe', 'though I definitely remember
passing the URL on to some neighbors. Anyhow, I Googled and searched
the food newsgroups last fall when given a bucket of figs. I didn't
try this, but it sounded terrific. Halve some figs, arrange cut side
up in a pan, dab sour cream on each half, sprinkle with brown sugar,
and broil to kind of melt/caramelize the sugar. The sour cream may be
still cool next to the fruit, but that's good.
I made jam. Figs are *beautiful* fruits -- a most agreeable color
scheme that I admired while prepping and simmering.
A Google search on "fig recipes" returned 80,400 hits. There ought to
be some thing useful in there.  The fig pie sounded interesting.
