Thread: Fig Jam

I know it is not about game...well, it could be, actually...I know deer will eat ripe figs...!!

Wash and cut the tops off of 1kg of figs, then cut into small pieces, Sprinkle 500g of castor sugar over the fruit and leave overnight, so that the sugar draws the liquid out of the fruit.
Add half a cup of orange juice, a stick of cinnamon and a vanilla pod split in half.
Cook on a reasonably slow element...when it has thickened, (this can take sometime) start doing the set test...when right, place in hot jars and seal...
