Fig jam

"Fig jam is a great spread and goes wonderfully with cheese. We recommend combining it with goat's cheese—whether it takes the form of cream cheese or slices. The recipe results in approx. 3 jars."

Easy 👌Ingredients
Step 1/5
- 333⅓ g figs
Rinse the figs, remove the stalks, cut them into small pieces and add them to a pot.
Step 2/5
- ⅔ lemon
Press the lemon and add the juice to the figs. Depending on your taste, you can also add some addtional lemon zest.
Step 3/5
- 166⅔ g jam sugar (1:2)
- ⅔ package vanilla sugar
- 13⅓ ml orange juice
Add the gelling sugar, orange juice and vanilla sugar to the pot and mix well to combine.
Step 4/5
Cover the pot and leave in the fridge overnight to allow the figs to infuse and extract more juice.
Step 5/5
The next day, bring the jam to boil and let simmer for approx. 5 min. Now pour into sterile jars. Turn the jars upside down and invert them after 10 min. As soon as you hear a *plop* you know that the jars are well sealed.
