Ingredients:

Serving

8 1/2 oz dried calmyrna figs
2 1/2 tsp currant jelly, warmed
1 tsp sambuca romana
2 tbsp walnuts, chopped
1/4 tsp anise seed

Directions:

The jelly should be warmed so that is is reduced to a thick syrup before you begin.
Chop the figs very small, by hand, and add to the remaining ingredients.
Place all in a food processor and pulse to get it to clump together only.
Set the blended mixture on a piece of foil. Form a sausage of it, and let it stand on the counter, at room temperature, uncovered, for 3 to 4 days. I've put a fine linen hanky over it to keep flies away, and it works fine. You want a skin to form over it.
Roll the sausage in a fig leaf (use more foil if you can't get a fig leaf), and tie it with string.
Set this in a wooden cask to age for a month. You can also put in the refrigerator for the same time for aging.
This recipe came from Carol Field, whom I adore.
