      Title: Windfall Fig Confiture
 Categories: Five, Fruits, Preserving
      Yield: 12 Jars
 
      4 lb Fresh figs
      3 c  Sugar
      1 c  Floral honey; clover, apple
           - blossom, or wildflower
      3 sm Organic lemons
      6    Sprigs fresh thyme
 
  The windfall - a friend's fig tree - 4 lb of perfectly
  ripe Brown Turkey figs. A favorite orchardist's clover
  honey. Aromatic organic lemons. Overgrown thyme in the
  herb garden.
  
  I cooked the confiture into a thick jam and jarred it
  up in 4 oz. jars. It's going to make a great gift at
  Christmas.
  
  Pour boiling water over the figs and let stand for 10
  mins.
  
  Lift the figs out of the boiling water, stem & quarter.
  Set aside.
  
  Wash the lemons well and slice very thin w/a mandoline
  or very sharp knife.
  
  In a preserving or other 5 qt or larger nonreactive
  pan, add figs, sugar, lemons, honey and thyme. Bring
  to a boil that cannot be stirred down, and boil for
  10 minutes.
  
  Pour mixture into a ceramic or glass bowl, cover with
  parchment, and refrigerate overnight.
  
  The next day, bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce
  and simmer 45 minutes or longer, until it is aromatic
  and thickened.
  
  Remove the thyme sprigs and fill hot jars with hot jam.
  Wipe the jars, place new lids and finger tighten rings.
  Process in a boiling water bath for 10 minutes.
