Fig & Ginger Jam
I made a fig jam the other week using figs that our neighbour gave us and it got eaten straight away!! Our figs are just about ready we managed to pick enough to make some more jam, but this time I thought I would try something different and make it with Honey to give a slightly different sweetness and Ginger, it worked a treat :-)!!….
Time 25mins
Difficulty: Easy
Makes approx 600g (2 Regular Jam jars…I made 1 normal size and two mini)
Ingredients
540g Figs chopped into chunks
500g Sugar (I used granulated as it was what we had)
50g Runny Honey
20g Ginger grated
1 Lemon
Method
Place the figs into a pan.
Pour in the sugar.
Add in the zest and juice of the lemon and the honey.
Let this simmer on a medium heat for about 20 minutes until all of the figs are soft and the jam is thickened.
With a hand blender blitz this up, I like to leave a few chunks but it’s up to you how smooth you want it.
Now sterilise the jars and add the hot jam into hot jars.

You can also do this in a microwave, see the below link:
Tasty…
This is such a good Jam, great on toast but also savoury with cheese.xxx
