Ingredients

Directions

Combine figs, honey, water, butter, lemon juice, cinnamon, vanilla extract, cloves, salt, and ginger in a pot; bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer until figs are soft, about 1 hour and 15 minutes.

Purée fig mixture with an immersion blender until jam reaches desired consistency; stir in walnuts. Continue cooking until flavors meld, about 15 minutes more.

Pour jam into a container. Store in the refrigerator for up to one month.

Cook’s Note

This jam will keep in the refrigerator for up to one month if you don't can it.

If you use dried figs, remove and discard stems, then place in a large pot. Add enough water to cover figs by 1 inch; bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer for 30 minutes. Off heat, cover and set aside until softened, up to 4 hours. For extra flavor, use 1 cup cooking liquid instead of the water in the recipe.
