"From a C.W.A. cookbook. I have made this once and lost the recipe, but am so pleased to say I have found it in this book. "The recipe comes from a lady that was still preserving figs at the age of 90. This is delicious served with ice-cream. It will depend on how big your jars are as to serving size, but I get about 4-5 smaller jars."
