Figs!

Our dear neighbors shared figs with us this week. We gobbled many of them up raw and enjoyed every bite!

We took some of them and simply cut the stems off, washed them, smashed them, and cooked them down in a pot until they were all tender. I had 8 cups of figs and added 1 cup of rapadura sugar to them.

I brought them to a boil and spooned them into hot glass mason jars. We can now use them on toast or biscuits or just eat a serving!

We've focused this summer on using local fruit and vegetables to make up the bulk of what we have been eating!

Thank you Joanna and Jeff!!
