Had some excess figs which were starting to go off, so what to do with them but make jam.

This has such an at home style, old world charm feel to it. I will have to try more of your recipes they look so good. I did try an anchovy. . .wow very strong taste.

madriguera: Thank you.

C. Mariani: I had fun arranging this. Glad you liked it.

edyta: Thank you. That's such a compliment! :)

Steve: Thanks!

Donna: Yes, you only need a small amount of anchovy in whatever you use it in. A little goes a long way.

Love how the light-colored figs almost glow from within in that gorgeous light. As one commenter above said, this has an old-world feel to it, I agree (can just imagine one of the Old Masters arranging such for an in-the-works masterpiece). Wonderful to view. (And my mouth is watering -- you made jam with these! A favorite.)
