Fig Preserves Recipe with step by step pictures. Delicious Fig jam made with figs and brown sugar which taste amazing with bread slices.
Fig jam
I love making jams, not only it is healthy to make at home. But homemade jams taste really delicious than the store bought kind.Whenever i see some overly ripe fruits lying around i make jam out of them. I never waste anything. Sometimes i even buy fruits to make jam..This is one jam which i made like that.
Figs are really good for you..I made this jam for amma. I decided to add little sugar to it. Thought of adding jaggery in this, but i ran out of it..So i added demerarra sugar and it turned out yummy..Hope you will give this a try and let me know how it turns out for you..

Fig Jam Recipe with Step by Step Pictures
I always keep the jam jar and pickle jars at home, they are heat proof..Now to sterlize this, cover with water and boil it for 5 mins |
Remove it and set aside to drain |
You need some figs and sugar..I used demerara sugar.. You can use jaggery or normal sugar too |
Take ¾ th of the figs in a blender |
puree smoothly |
pour it in a pan |
add in ¼th of chopped figs |
add in sugar |
mix well |
the sugar will melt down |
now keep mixing it |
it will get thick |
the colour will darken too |
now the jam is almost done |
pour some jam over a frozen plate.. |
When you bring it together it will come like a jam |
Now fill your jar |
cover it and put it in fridge. |
