It is the fibrous fig-skin remnants left after the pulp is separated from dried figs, rather than a whole dried fig. Its texture is drier and more fibrous, so it is often easier to mix into foods than to eat like a regular dried fig.
Add dried fig with the pulp removed to porridge, yogurt, cereal, or baked goods for a fibrous fig ingredient. Mix it in well, since the dry, stringy pieces may not blend evenly when left whole.
Not as a direct one-for-one replacement in every recipe. It does not provide the same soft, moist pieces as whole dried figs, so chop or soften it first and expect a different texture.
No, soaking is not essential. If you want a softer texture, let dried fig with the pulp removed sit in warm water briefly, then drain it; you can also stir the softened pieces into porridge or batter.
Yes, the product is made up of edible fibrous fig-skin remnants. You can eat it on its own or add it to food, though its dry, coarse texture may be more pleasant when mixed into a moist dish.
Keep dried fig with the pulp removed in a tightly closed container in a cool, dry place. Protect it from moisture, and discard it if you notice mold, an unusual sour smell, or a marked change in appearance.
Yes, it is a fiber-rich fig product because it consists largely of fibrous skin remnants. Add it gradually if you are not used to high-fiber foods, since a sudden increase can cause bloating.
Its fiber may support regular bowel movements, especially when you drink enough fluid. Increase your intake gradually; adding a lot of fiber at once can cause gas or discomfort rather than immediate relief.
Yes, it contains carbohydrates and can affect blood glucose. If you have diabetes, fit it into your individual meal plan; ask your clinician or dietitian for advice that accounts for your treatment.
Because the pulp has been separated, what remains is mostly fibrous fig skin rather than the soft, fleshy interior. Mixing it into moist foods or soaking it briefly can make the texture easier to enjoy.

Dried fig, pulp removed refers to the fibrous skin and remaining pieces left after the inner flesh of a dried fig is separated. It is not the same as eating a whole dried fig. The flavour is mildly sweet, while the texture is dry, chewy and sometimes seedy. It is not a common standalone snack; it can be stirred into porridge or yoghurt, or added in small amounts to homemade baking.
Its main nutritional feature is fibre, with 19.6 g per 100 g. If you prefer a softer texture, briefly soak it before use; pairing it with plain yoghurt or oats balances its sweetness.
High
How many vitamins, minerals and how much fiber this food carries per calorie. A high score means a lot of nutrition for few calories.
High
An EatBetter score computed from fiber, protein and calorie density. A high score means staying full longer on the same calories.
Both scores are calculated per 100 g and do not change with the selected portion. The satiety score is EatBetter's own calculation, not a clinical measure.
