How to Make Gingered Figs
- Place 1 pound of fresh figs and 1/2 cup of water in a medium saucepan.
- Bring to a rolling boil over medium-high heat. Reduce heat to low, and simmer gently.
- Cover the saucepan and cook for 20 minutes, allowing the figs to soften.
- Stir in 1/4 cup of molasses, 1 tablespoon of grated fresh ginger (or 1 teaspoon ground ginger), and 1/4 cup of granulated sugar.
- Gently stir the mixture to avoid breaking the figs. Be careful not to over-stir.
- Continue to simmer uncovered for another 15 minutes, or until the figs are plump, tender, and the sauce has thickened slightly.
- Serve warm as a delicious accompaniment to roasted meats, poultry, or cheese. Also delightful on their own!
- Makes 5 to 6 servings.
