Instructions
- Wash your figs and pat dry.
- Keep a plate in the freezer (will use it later to test setting of jam). Clean and sterilize your jam jars and lids.
- Quarter figs and place into large jam cooking pot.
- Pour sugar over figs, as well as the lemon juice.
- Mix the fruits with the sugar and lemon juice.
- Keep on medium heat and bring to a rolling boil.
- Then reduce heat to a simmer, stir occasionally.
- Let the jam simmer until it's set. To test setting, either check with your thermometer, setting temperature 105 Celcius/220 Fahrenheit, and/or drop some jam on the ice cold plate and turn the plate a bit to see if the jam runs (watch my video). If it's not moving, your jam is set.
- Fill your clean jars with the jam up to the rim so that there is no air when you close the lid.
- Drop some rum or other alcohol onto the lid to kill any germs left.
- Wipe your jars clean, close with the lid tight and quickly turn the jam jars upside down to create a vacuum.
- Leave the jam jars upside down for about 24 hours. Then turn them.
- Keep your labels ready, mark with jam name and date. Stick on the jam jars so that you know what's in it.
- Store your fig jam in a cool and dry place. Once opened, store in the fridge only.
