Dried figs, also known as anjeer in India, are the sun-dried or dehydrated fruits of the common fig tree (Ficus carica). They are celebrated for their natural sweetness, chewy texture, and impressive nutritional profile, making them a popular choice for snacking and culinary uses.

Dried figs are produced by removing the water content from fresh figs, resulting in a dense, energy-rich fruit. They are available in various forms, including whole, sliced, or stuffed, and can be found in different colors such as golden, black, or brown. In India, dried figs are commonly consumed as a healthy snack or incorporated into desserts and savory dishes.
