Enjoy your delicious homemade fig jam<\/strong> on fresh bread, pancakes or with cheese.<\/p>\n\nPreparing the figs<\/h3>\n\n To make a delicious fig jam with a Thermomix, start by gathering all the necessary ingredients: fresh figs, sugar, lemon juice and perhaps a vanilla pod to enhance the flavours.<\/p>\n\n
Start by carefully washing the figs.\nThen cut them in half or quarters, depending on their size, and remove the skin if it’s too thick. <\/p>\n\n
Place the prepared figs in the Thermomix bowl.\nAdd the sugar and lemon juice.\nIf you’d like to add a touch of vanilla, split the pod in half and add the seeds to the figs. <\/p>\n\n
Close the Thermomix lid and blend<\/strong> on speed 5 for 10 seconds to homogenize the mixture.<\/p>\n\nProgram to bake at 100\u00b0C, speed 4<\/strong>, for 30 minutes.\nMake sure the measuring cup is in place. <\/p>\n\nAt the end of cooking, check the consistency of the jam.\nIf it’s too runny, cook for a further 10 minutes on Varoma<\/strong>, speed 3, without the cup, to allow evaporation. <\/p>\n\nOnce the jam has reached the desired consistency, pour immediately into sterilized jars.\nClose the jars and turn them upside down to create an air space, for better preservation. <\/p>\n\n
Allow jars to cool to room temperature before storing in a cool, dark place.<\/p>\n\n
Cooking with the Thermomix<\/h3>\n\n Choose ripe<\/strong>, flavorful figs<\/strong> for a richly flavored jam.\nWash figs thoroughly under cold running water to remove any impurities. <\/p>\n\nNext, cut the figs into small pieces.\nThis makes for faster, more even cooking.\nYou can also keep the skin on the figs for a more rustic, fiber-rich texture. <\/p>\n\n
Place the fig pieces in the Thermomix bowl.\nAdd 500 g of sugar for 1 kg of figs.\nFor a touch of originality, you can add the juice of a lemon<\/strong> and a vanilla<\/strong> pod. <\/p>\n\nRun the Thermomix on speed 3, at 100\u00b0C, for around 10 minutes.\nThis will dissolve the sugar and start cooking the figs. <\/p>\n\n
After 10 minutes, reduce speed to 1 and cook at 90\u00b0C for a further 30 minutes.\nRemember to remove any scum that may form on the surface to obtain a clearer jam. <\/p>\n\n
While cooking, prepare glass jars.\nSterilize them by plunging them into a pan of boiling water for 10 minutes, then leave them to air-dry. <\/p>\n\n
To check doneness, perform the cold plate test.\nPlace a drop of jam on a plate previously placed in the fridge.\nIf the drop sets quickly, your jam is ready. <\/p>\n\n
Once the jam is cooked, pour it immediately into the sterilized jars.\nClose the jars and turn them upside down for a few minutes to create an air vacuum and ensure better preservation. <\/p>\n\n
Let the jars cool to room temperature.\nStore in a cool, dry place, away from light. <\/p>\n\n
Potting<\/h3>\n\n To make delicious fig jam<\/strong> with a Thermomix, start by gathering your ingredients.\nYou’ll need : <\/p>\n\n\n\n1 kg fresh figs<\/li>\n\n\n 500 g sugar<\/li>\n\n\n 1 lemon (juice and zest)<\/li>\n\n\n 1 vanilla pod (optional)<\/li>\n\n<\/ul>\n\nWash figs thoroughly.\nCut them into quarters and remove the stems.\nPlace the figs in the Thermomix bowl. <\/p>\n\n
Add the sugar, lemon juice and zest, and split vanilla pod if using.\nBlend for 10 seconds<\/strong> at speed 5<\/strong> until smooth. <\/p>\n\nProgram the Thermomix to 100\u00b0C<\/strong> and set to 20 minutes, speed 2<\/strong>.\nTo avoid splashing, use the cooking basket instead of the measuring cup. <\/p>\n\nAfter the 20-minute cooking time, check the consistency of the jam.\nIf it seems too runny, cook for a further 5 to 10 minutes, still at 100\u00b0C.\nThe jam is ready when it coats the spoon. <\/p>\n\n
Then move on to potting<\/strong>.\nSterilize your pots and lids by immersing them in boiling water for a few minutes.\nLeave to dry on a clean cloth. <\/p>\n\nPour the hot jam into the sterilized jars, using a funnel to prevent spillage.\nFill each jar to about 1 cm from the rim. <\/p>\n\n
Close the jars immediately and turn them upside down to create an air vacuum, which will help preserve the jam better.\nAllow jars to cool completely before turning them upside down again. <\/p>\n\n
