Or you can soak them in water or some other liquid to give them a different taste. It takes 12 to 24 hours to soften the figs... it's hard to tell you an exact time because it depends on how dry the figs are and how soft you want them. Or you can stew/poach the figs by putting them in a pan that has a tight fitting lid with the liquid of your choice, and let it simmer until the fruit has plumped back up.

You don't even have to cut the fig into smaller pieces or remove the seeds if you don't want to. Just pop the entire fig into your mouth and enjoy it!
