Fig tree is going crazy out in the Garden! Got a real nice big bucket full off the tree today, so it was Fig Compote / Jam making time. This is both celeste and LSU Gold varietys of figs... my little 2 year old girl decided to help daddy pick so some of them are a little less ripe than others. Usual suspects for spices and ummmmmm that's the "secret" Of course here's the pg-13 version In dem pots you go! Voila! A lot of people seem to like the pureed style fig jam. I could have went that route with these by blending / using a boat motor on em... but i really enjoy the chunks of fruit in the mix. Hope to get at least this much again on a second picking of the two fig trees..... I love me some fig preserves...

Arch, that is a year supply right dere, maybe, LOL. You make fig cookies or fig cakes with them. Fig compote with smoked pork is a yum -JimZ
