Fig jam
In Rus', jam was a delicacy made from honey and berries. Today, honey is replaced by sugar, and along with berries, fruits, vegetables, and even flowers are used. Amber-brown fig jam has an original taste. To prepare a fig dessert for the winter, you should choose light, medium-sized fruits. Dark figs have a tougher skin, so you will have to cut it off. Making fig jam at home is easy. It takes several hours, but the process itself is not difficult.
How to cook Fig jam
Step 1

Prepare the figs. Cut off the ends of the figs (not completely) with manicure or small kitchen scissors. Cut the bases crosswise by about 5–6 mm. Stick a clove bud into 4 figs.
Step 2

Cook the fig jam. In a saucepan with a thick bottom, mix the balsamic vinegar, lemon juice, and water. Add sugar and lemons, bring to a boil, and skim off the foam. Cook on low heat for 10 minutes. Add the figs and stir. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to low, cook for 3 minutes, remove from heat, and cool completely for 3-4 hours. Stir and repeat the procedure three more times (4 in total). Place the finished jam in sterilized jars and close with lids.
