Fig & Lemon Jam
- 1 pound Fresh Black Mission Figs, Stemmed And Cut Into 1/2-inch Pieces
- 1 whole Lemon, Zested
- 3/4 cups Sugar
- 1/4 cups Fresh Lemon Juice
- 1/4 cups Rose Wine
- 4 jars (4 Oz. Size) Canning Jars With Lids And Rings, Sterilized
- In a large, nonreactive saucepan, toss the fig pieces with the lemon zest and sugar. Let stand, stirring occasionally, until the sugar is mostly dissolved and the figs are juicy, about 15 minutes.
- Add the lemon juice and wine and bring to a boil, stirring until the sugar is completely dissolved. Simmer the fig jam over medium heat, stirring often, until the fruit is soft and the liquid runs off the side of a spoon in thick, heavy drops. This will take about 20 minutes.
- Spoon the jam into four 4-ounce jelly jars, leaving 1/4-inch of space at the top. Close the jars and let cool to room temperature. Store the jam in the refrigerator for up to 3 months.
