Glace Figs (Dried Figs) image

These are to die for. Absolutely fabulous with a cheese board, they just add that magnificent flavour. We have access to three fig trees and make these all summer, they are gorgeous, you must have a dehydrator to make these though, the oven just doesn't work.

Number Of Ingredients 4

4 lbs ripe figs

Steps:

  • Cut stems off figs, wash, prick well all around with fork. Place water, sugar and vinegar in saucepan, stir until sugar dissolves.

  • Drain figs, place on fine wire rack and stand on oven tray.
