Amish F.R.O.G. Jam
(Figs, Raspberries, Orange, Ginger)
Makes 5 to 6 8oz jars
5 cups dried figs (2 lbs), remove stems and quarter
2 cups orange juice
1 10oz bag frozen raspberries
1 Tbsp freshly grated ginger
1 cup sugar (more or less to taste)


Directions:
1. In a large SS pot add figs and orange juice. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to a simmer and cover. Cook until skins are soft and the seeds have been released (15 minutes) stir every few minutes.
2. Using a stick blender, puree the fig skins (or allow mixture to cool and then put in a blender and puree).
3. Add raspberries and ginger. Increase heat to medium and stir frequently. Cook until the raspberries have fallen apart and are well incorporated.

4. Add sugar to taste. Since there is no pectin in this recipe the amount of sugar doesn’t matter.

I need a recipe for fresh figs

You could dry them first in a dehydrator. Or adapt the recipe to fresh figs. I'd rather use them fresh in jam too. There are varieties of figs that will not bear without the wasp. I don't think we have that wasp here. Been so long since I did the research on that I don't know at them moment. Figs are a "I want" but not an "I need" right now. So many berries that need to be planted and Muscadines too. This fall when it cools down I need to build the trellis system for Muscadines. The vineyard needs to have some grade work done so it will not have standing water. I had to put on a flannel shirt this morning for chores outside. 68° here but they say 92° later today.

Granny it's time to get those papers together. There are worse jobs like putting on shingles on a roof in AZ in with a temp of 115° in blazing hot sun.

Granny it's my turn to sit in my chair today. This left shoulder that needs replacing is talking trash talk today. I can feel it complain when I type a post on here. Just that small amount of movement makes it complain. I know more PP's are not going to help and not the answer.
