1. Try to select figs of equal ripeness. Wash.
2. Cut stems a wee bit around, do not expose inside of figs. If extra ripe, don’t worry, just get stem.
3. Sugar is measure for measure but I like it rounded for figs. So not quite equal measure.
4. Put sugar over figs (and lemon slices). Cover. Put aside until morning. (If you cook right away keep your heat low to begin with.) (Water added here.) Water different for juice. I’d say if over night, it will turn into juice so you won’t add much then. If cooking right away, try 1/4 measured to fig measure. I like to have juice to cover figs in jars. Left over juice can be used for another cooking of figs.

1. To make fig preserves, start by slicing the stems off of the figs and give the figs a rinse. Add the figs to a stock pot and add the sugar. Mash the sugar and figs together. Add the water, lemon juice, ginger, and salt and stir to combine.
2. Over medium heat bring to a simmer. Turn the heat down to medium low and continue to simmer for two hours, stirring constantly. Cover but leave the lid cracked for evaporation during cooking.
3. The last half hour while the figs cook boil enough water to sanitize five 1/2 pint (8 oz.) mason jars, lids, and rings. When the jars are prepared, allow to cool enough for handling – add your cooked fig preserves, filling to the top. Add the lid and ring and close tightly. Add the filled jars back to the water bath and process for 15 minutes. Remove and allow to cool completely. Be sure to tighten lids after cooling as they tend to loosen during the cool down.
4. Refrigerate the preserves after they’ve cooled completely. Enjoy the preserves as a spread, a topping, or use it as a filling for pocket pies.
