Ingredients
Preparation
- In a saucepan, combine the figs, rum, and water, and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for about 15 minutes or until the figs are soft. Transfer to a bowl and let cool at room temperature.
- When the fig mixture is cool, blend it with a blender or a hand mixer until the consistency of a fine purée is reached. Put the mixture back into the saucepan and add the sugar. While stirring constantly, cook over low heat for about 10 minutes or until the mixture has the consistency of a spread.
- Pour the jam into the Mason jars and let cool. Keep in the refrigerator.
