Misc.

FIG PRESERVES (easy & very good)

3 cups figs, peeled & quartered
2 c sugar
1 c water

Bring to a boil. Reduce heat & simmer until it looks like a light syrup ( I think approx 20 to 25 min) Pour into hot sterile jars and process in water bath or invert sealed jars for 5 min then turn upright to cool.

I noticed that they thicken more after refrigeration.

I posted this before under Mrs. Lamb's Fig Preserves. It came from my elderly neighbor who gave me an abundance of figs. It's not too thick when done but make sure you cook it until it gets like a light to medium syrup stage.
