Green Fig Preserve

My Green Fig Preserve starts with fresh, locally sourced figs, carefully picked in their green state to capture their unique flavor and texture. I simmer them gently with lemon juice, ginger, and sugar, creating a rich and flavorful preserve free from preservatives or artificial ingredients.

For years, I’ve made this preserve by hand for my family, and now I’m sharing it with you. It’s perfect for elevating cheese boards with creamy brie or camembert, spreading over warm buttered toast, or adding a sweet touch to plain yoghurt. If you’re feeling adventurous, try it as a roast chicken or pork glaze—it’s a game-changer!

I hope my Green Fig Preserve brings as much joy to your table as it does to mine.
