A past that stands the test of time

 

Dried figs have been an essential part of the human diet for millennia. Since ancient times, hunters and gatherers discovered that ripe figs falling from the trees in the warm sun became exquisite delicacies full of nutrients. This natural way of making figs has been maintained over the centuries, and at Higos El Pajarero, we carry this legacy in each of our products.

 

Tradition and quality in every mouthful

 

The tradition of growing and producing dried figs is at the heart of Higos El Pajarero. Our father and founder, Don Domingo Carrillo Aguilar, with his passion for nature and family tradition, started this adventure more than half a century ago. Since then, we have maintained and improved the high quality standards that have led us to consolidate our position as a leading company in the sector. Fuensanta Carrillo Pulido is currently at the head of the company.

 

We are proud to say that our plantations in the province of Badajoz, Extremadura, have been fundamental in our growth. The ideal conditions of the territory and the climate have allowed the cultivation of fig trees which, together with the experience and dedication of our growers, give life to the best dried figs on the market.

 

Although the company started out marketing dried figs, today it has a wide variety of products made from dried figs, such as spreadable creams, chocolate bonbons, dried fig bread, figs in syrup, bags of dried figs with rice flour in different sizes, organic bars, etc. 

 

The perfect combination of technology and innovation

In our commitment to technology, we join forces with innovation. We are constantly creating new products to meet the demands of the market. From Extremadura to Barcelona, our figs are carefully harvested and then taken to our packing and shipping plant. We guarantee the highest standards of quality and food safety in everything, including packaging for shipping.

Did you know these surprising benefits and curiosities about dried figs?

 

If not, have you ever thought about including dried figs in your daily diet? In addition to being delicious, these fruits also have medicinal and beneficial properties for the skin. But that's not all, figs are one of the oldest known fruits and have played an important role in many cultures throughout history. In this post, we will tell you what you need to know about the surprising benefits and curiosities of figs.

 

Medicinal properties

 

Dried figs have medicinal properties that make them an ally for your health. For example, they are effective in combating constipation thanks to their high fibre content. 

 

They have also been shown to lower blood pressure and prevent anaemia. In addition, figs contain antioxidants that help prevent cellular ageing. Therefore, including figs in your diet can help you maintain good health.

 

But that's not all, figs also have beneficial properties for the skin. They contain vitamins C and antioxidants that protect the skin against free radicals and prevent premature ageing.

 

Figs are a natural source of energy, fibre and B vitamins, vitamin C, A and E and many other minerals such as calcium, iron, magnesium, zinc, copper and phosphorus, among others. This is why they are so popular with sportsmen and women. They are also easy to take anywhere and eat whenever you feel like it. They are a good snack for any time of the day.

 

Did you know?

 

Did you know that in ancient times fig leaves were used to cover the genitals of the biblical figures of Adam and Eve? Yes! It is believed to be a symbol of modesty and protection. In some cultures they were even used to cover the statues of gods and goddesses as a sign of respect. Since then, the fig leaf has become a symbol of modesty and protection in various cultures throughout history. Interesting, isn't it?

 

Did you know that figs are actually inverted flowers? Yes, as you read it. The fig flower develops inwards, forming a kind of sack that becomes the fruit we know. That's why, when we cut a fig, we can see small seeds that are actually the reproductive organs of the flower.

 

Figs were a fruit of kings! Already in the time of the Egyptian pharaohs they were served to the royalty on an elegant plate. But beware! Despite their noble status, they can also be dangerous. It is said that an asp hidden in a basket of figs may have caused Cleopatra's death - unbelievable but true! Let's not underestimate the power of these fruits that have been revered for centuries ;)

 

On the other hand, figs are very versatile in the kitchen. You can enjoy them fresh as a dessert fruit or use them in different recipes, from salads to desserts. They can also be used to make jams, sauces and jams. You can find many recipes right here on our blog :)

 

Dried figs in history

Figs are one of the oldest known fruits. They are believed to have been one of the first crops domesticated by humans more than 5,000 years ago. For this reason, figs are of great importance in the history and culture of many civilisations.

 

They are considered a sacred food in many cultures. For example, in ancient Greece, athletes consumed figs to increase their physical and mental endurance. In the Islamic religion, figs are mentioned several times in the Koran and are considered a symbol of blessing and prosperity.

 

Figs also play an important role in Greek mythology. The hero Heracles, also known as Hercules, is said to have performed one of his exploits by stealing figs from a sacred garden. 

 

From Jesus to Buddha, the fig tree has been a symbol of fertility, abundance and knowledge in human history. In the Bible, Jesus found a fig tree with no fruit, while in Buddhism, Buddha attained enlightenment under a fig tree. 

 

Figs are a fruit with a rich history and culture that offers many health and skin benefits. They are also very versatile in the kitchen and can be used in a wide variety of recipes. If you haven't tried figs yet, it's time to start including them in your daily diet!

The multiple benefits of dried figs

 

El Pajarero dried figs are a delicious and nutritious snack that offers many health benefits. Because they are dried, they have a longer shelf life than fresh figs and are available year-round. 

 

These are some of the many benefits of eating El Pajarero dried figs

 

 

1. Dried figs are a good source of fiber. Dietary fiber is important for maintaining a healthy digestive system. Fiber also helps regulate bowel movements and can reduce the risk of constipation and other digestive disorders. 

 

2. Dried figs are a good source of minerals such as potassium, calcium, iron and magnesium. Potassium is important for maintaining blood pressure and heart function. Calcium is essential for strong bones and teeth. Iron helps prevent anemia by transporting oxygen to the body's cells. Magnesium is involved in more than 300 biochemical reactions and is important for muscle function, energy production and nerve function.

 

3. Dried figs contain flavonoids, which are antioxidants that can protect cells from free radical damage. Free radicals are unstable molecules that can cause cell damage and contribute to the development of chronic diseases such as heart disease and cancer. Antioxidants such as flavonoids help neutralize free radicals and prevent cell damage. 

 

4. Dried figs contain phenolic compounds, which have anti-inflammatory properties. Inflammation is a natural response of the body to injury or infection, but chronic inflammation can contribute to the development of chronic diseases such as heart disease, arthritis and diabetes. Phenolic compounds can help reduce inflammation throughout the body. 

 

5. El Pajarero dried figs may improve blood sugar control in people with diabetes. This is because they have a low glycemic index (GI), which means they cause a gradual rise in blood sugar levels after eating them. Low GI foods are beneficial for people with diabetes because they help control blood sugar levels. 

 

6. Dried figs can improve heart health in several ways. They can help lower cholesterol levels and improve circulation by widening blood vessels. Both of these effects can help reduce the risk of heart disease. 

 

7 Eating dried figs can help prevent and treat anemia. Anemia is a disease characterized by low levels of hemoglobin, which is the protein in red blood cells that carries oxygen throughout the body. Dried figs are a good source of iron, which is necessary for hemoglobin production. Eating iron-rich foods, such as El Pajarero dried figs, can help prevent and treat anemia. 

 

As you can see, there are many reasons to incorporate dried figs into your diet! Not only are they delicious, but they also offer numerous health benefits. If you're looking for a nutritious snack that will give you energy and keep you satiated, grab some dried figs next time - you won't regret it!
