How to make Fig Jam - Homemade Jam Recipe

in #tasteem5 years ago (edited)

Hello, here is a recipe for a good fig jam that I love a real happiness this jam I had prepared this jam in August

I love figs nature.
I wait for their season to be able to taste them or make desserts such as fig pies, fig cakes.
Or simply a succulent jam like the one I propose today.
A jam that I savor with a good homemade bread, like khobz dar or matlouh.

This jam, my mother prepared it for every season of figs.
We had a beautiful fig tree so generous that everyone ate their fruits.
Figs fleshy, very sweet.
When the fig is ripe, it looks like it's honey.

The secret to succeeding a good jam is the right mix, at the time I remember my mother told me to do so much so much, over time I realized that less sugar is better, and macerate these fruit at night gives a better result. Not to mention cooking over low heat and in a pot with a thick bottom.

Feel free to flavor your jams according to your taste, it's true that a cinnamon stick is always better, but the addition of lavender, star anise and other spices or fragrant plants will only give a better taste .
