Ginger Fig Jam

Fig + Ginger + Sugar = Yum

This isn’t really a recipe.  It’s a bit like recycled food.  After two weeks of fig preserve, we wanted something new to accompany our morning toast.  So, I took what was left over from my 5 cups of fig preserve, added more sugar, and a few handfuls of candied ginger… et voilà.  Ginger Fig Jam, yummy.

Ginger Fig Jam
approximately 3 cups

2 cups fig preserve
1/2 – 1 cup candied ginger, fine julienne
1/2 – 1 cup sugar

Combine all ingredients in a medium sauce pot.  Bring to a gentle simmer and cook to a consistency that you desire.  (Approximately 10-15 minutes)
