Recipe for fig jam with honey, white wine and cinnamon
- I wipe my figues with a damp cloth. I remove the top of the peduncle. I cut my figs in four.
- I put them in my copper basin or a stainless steel container, I pour the white wine and add the cinnamon stick.
- Eventually, I add a little mineral water to cover all the figs.
- I bring to a boil, then simmer, over medium heat, until the figs soften and the juice begins to turn syrupy.
- I take them and reserve them in a bowl.
- I add the honey to the syrup and heat over low heat, then pour the sugar in rain. I reduce this very fragrant syrup. It should freeze at the end of my spoon, fourth drop.
- I put my figs back in this syrup and give a light broth.
- I like to cut my figs in half to make cubes, on the back of the wooden spoon, this helps to prolong the pleasure of a refined jam that would be eaten quickly with a spoon.
Cooking takes about 40 minutes.
SUGGESTION : Served with a scoop of ice cream of your choice, even chocolate ice cream or blackcurrant sorbet, it becomes a delicious dish.
