Figs jams can be made with virtually any Kool Aid flavors – the original six flavors were Strawberry, Raspberry, Orange, Lemon-Lime, Grape, and Cherry, Although not all are a perfect choice, many are suitable to flavor figs including Black Cherry,
To reduce the amount of sugar and sweetness, Kool-Aid flavors can be used instead of Jello.
Ingredients
- 4 cups fresh figs ground
- 3 cups sugar
- 1 large box strawberry jello
Directions
Step 1
Clean figs; cut stems off and grind in meat grinder or food processor.
Step 2
Put figs in large, heavy-duty pot. Pour the sugar over the figs, then the jello. Let the mixture soak for 30 to 45 minutes.
Step 3
Cook over medium heat until mixture comes to a boil. Lower heat and cook on low for 30 minutes after the mixture comes to a boil. The mixture is not real thick.
Step 4
Dip the canning jars and lids in hot water to sterilize.
Step 5
Pour figs into the canning jars that have been placed in hot water so the jars will not break. Seal, cool and store.
