Grandma taught Mom how to make this and Mom had a tree to make as much as she wanted! Remember to peel and cut the figs under running water or the acid will hurt your hands. Totally excellent on buttered English Muffins!! Ingredients:
5 lbs figs, peeled and cut up |
3 cups sugar |
2 tablespoons honey |
1 lemon, sliced |
1 orange, sliced |
1 cinnamon stick (very fine) |
3 cloves |
Directions:
1. Prepare first 3 ingredients (use cup for cup of Sugar to figs) and let stand in a bowl over night.
2. Boil with sliced lemon and orange. After the mixture cooks a bit, add the cinnamon and cloves (use the cloves to your taste).
3. Cook until clear.
4. Set into prepared jars, per standard canning instructions.
