Fig Jam

You can make this as a orange/cocoa by adding 2 tablespoons powdered cocoa and using orange juice in place of the water.

You will need:

1 1/2 cups finely chopped dried figs that have first been soaked overnight
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup water
2 tablespoons lemon juice

Combine all, and cook until thick over medium heat (about 5 minutes). Makes about 1 1/2 pints.
