Fig season, although they are kind of dilute with all the rain. I'm planning on making fig preserves tomorrow and looking for tips. Online search of recipes are roughly the same: figs, sugar, lemon juice and lemon slices. I've never made it so if you have any tips or tried and true down home recipes I would like to hear. I saw one that included ginger which sounds good to me. I have 3 lbs figs in the fridge right now.

If the figs aren’t really sweet or are just meh, add a handful of chopped dates.

My mom (sorry, no pics) made some this weekend. Just whole figs, not sliced and sugar. And they are amazing. Gonna have to ask her if she ever thought about adding any other ingredients.
