another idea for figs

Madgardener and all other fig growers,



I just ran across a jar of Fig and Cranberry Preserves in the grocery store. I don't have a recipe, but I would assume that a fig jam recipe could be modified with cranberries added in. Sounded like a good combination to me...and you could spread it on a leftover turkey sandwich after Thanksgiving! (For those who eat winged creatures...), or spread it on crackers w/ cheese like a chutney.



I wonder how figs would taste in a salsa?



Well, not sure if you still have figs, but thought I'd toss those out!

that sounds interesting! I still have a few. The ones I spot up in the upper branch tips are droopy and so sweet they're unreal The rest I will let drop as it's too far in the season to get a good ripening. But those five I picked the other day were a special treat. Fig preserves. I'll have to look up a receipe for next year. I'm not pruning the tree this year in hopes that this was the reason I had a whole lot more than I ever had in the past. Thanks for thinking of us! madgardener
