I must admit that this Fig Jam and jams with my weakness of loses.

I love to make them jams at the end of the season. When the fruit is more inexpensive and is in that moment that did it first time my jam of figs.

I always do too much (at least a kilo of fruit) because it seems to me a magnificent gift to carry when I invite you to lunch or dinner at someone's House.

I keep it in tiny boats and carry a basket with an assortment of jams that are always a success.

My favorite, you know is the mango Jam (I bring it prontito, which now comes the season) but I also love for medlar.

But I use this fig jam to accompany cheeses, bread and pâtés. I love the sweetness of the jam in the salty! ummm!
