With a good harvest of fig, the
easiest way to make a large batch of jam is to cook in the oven.
1. Cut fig into halves or quarter, ginger
into fine cubes, in a big bowl, add a big pinch of salt and mix well, leave
overnight to soften.
2. Spread fig mixture in big shallow baking
trays, bake at 70˚C for 10 hours, stirring every couple of hours. At this
temperature, the pectin in the seeds will come out and the mixture becomes
thick.

3. Depending on sweetness of final fig mixture,
add sugar if needed, add candied orange/lemon peel and bring to boil before
bottling.
