Fig and Onion Spread

This recipe was great! As this was my first time using fresh figs I was excited to try it. I subbed the red onion for shallots and the sugar for raw honey. I would use a little bit more balsamic vinegar for a more savory bite (just my preference) other than that, 10/10!Oh, I also scooped the fig out, I did not want to use the skin.

Great recipe! I used figs from my own backyard tree rather than black mission but otherwise followed the recipe exactly. The cook times were a little different for me, but I could tell by the descriptions when it was time to move on to the next step. Served on crostini with goat cheese and felt fancy. Yum! Will make this again (maybe tomorrow).

Delicious! Used Turkey Figs and sweet vidalia onions because that’s what I had on hand. Nice flavor, texture, and color. served in a cracker with a smear of cream cheese.

I replaced the white sugar with brown sugar! Delicious and so easy.

This rescued us from dry out-of-season figs!! We picked up 2 trays (30 figs) of fresh figs on Christmas Eve, knowing they were out of season but thrilled to find them. And yes, they turned out to be dry and tasteless. So I found this recipe and, voila!! Tangy sweet fig onion jam. Not too sweet, just right. I used honey instead of sugar, and only 1 tbsp was plenty. Plus added a little salt, as others here had suggested. So easy!! Saved the cardboard-like figs!!! My husband thought they couldn’t be saved, now he can’t get enough of this. I love proving him wrong.

Yum! This was good as-is but after tasting it I decided to add a little brown sugar, a sprinkling of black pepper, and just a touch of garlic powder. Excellent with cheese and crackers! I ended up using the back of the spoon to smash down the fog and help break it up while it was cooking
