Our fig tree is cranking this year. I have already harvested about 50 lbs of figs. Yesterday I peeled figs for preserves for 5 hours. About 3 hours into it, the skin on my fingers started to show blisters from the acidity so I put on gloves. This morning my nail beds are all bleeding and painful. What a ‘tard! I’m off to find recipes I can use for my figs that don’t involve peeling them, since the trees are still FULL of figs. Ugh…
