Fig sauce is a sweet and versatile condiment made primarily from ripe figs, sugar, and often complementary flavors like lemon juice, cinnamon, or vanilla. Originating in Mediterranean and Middle Eastern cuisines, it highlights the region’s love for fruit-based sauces and preserves. Packed with natural sugars, figs offer dietary fiber, potassium, and antioxidants, contributing to digestive health and fighting oxidative stress. However, due to added sugar in many recipes, fig sauce should be enjoyed in moderation, especially for those monitoring their sugar intake. Its rich, fruity taste makes it perfect for drizzling over desserts, pairing with cheeses, or using as a glaze for meats. For a healthier option, homemade recipes can reduce or eliminate added sugar while preserving the natural sweetness of the figs.
