Five finger Anjeer fruit plants

Anjeer, commonly known as fig, is a delicious, tear-shaped fruit with a soft, chewy texture and sweet, honey-like flavor. It can be consumed fresh or dried, with dried anjeer being more popular due to its longer shelf life. Fresh anjeer has a thin, colorful skin with a pinkish, seed-filled interior that adds a pleasant crunch. The unique taste and texture make it an ideal addition to both sweet and savory dishes.

Packed with essential nutrients, anjeer is a great source of dietary fiber, calcium, potassium, and antioxidants. It supports digestion, promotes heart and bone health, and helps regulate blood pressure and cholesterol. Anjeer is also used in Indian desserts like halwa and barfi, as well as in snacks, cereals, yogurts, and health mixes, making it both a nutritious and versatile fruit.
