Fig Preserves

To say we have an overabundance of figs at work is an understatement.  It's a battle with the birds of who will get to them first, and we know I don't like to lose. A grocery bag full couldn't be consumed just by eating them with a little goat cheese - I had to find a new recipe. Fig preserves was the answer and I found a super easy recipe from D.I.Y. Delicious for Fig-Rosemary Jam. An evening over the stove stirring and three jars of jam later, I made my first efforts at preserving. It's delicious spread over a hot biscuit, but I'm really looking forward to trying it with a bit of pulled pork.
