As summer ends, I've been eating figs as much as possible - for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. One of my favorite recipes I've made to celebrate full fig flavor is this fig swirl ice cream. It'll cool you down during warm September days, but has a lingering warmth that reminds you of incoming fall.
<br />
<br />The fig swirl retains that marvelous pop of fig seeds and winey, plush figgy flavor, which works so well against the backdrop of sweet, cold ice cream.
<br />
<br />I was inspired by both of the fig ice creams made by The Bojon Gourmet and pastry studio, but used the ice cream from Jeni's Splendid Ice Cream, with a few changes along the way.
