Fig Filling

Fig filling can be made up to 2 weeks ahead. Store in a sterilized jar or airtight container in the refrigerator. The flavors will meld and intensify over time. Bring to room temperature before using in pastries or as a spread.

Store cooled fig filling in an airtight container or jar in the refrigerator for up to 3 weeks, or freeze for up to 6 months. If the filling becomes too thick after storage, thin with 1-2 teaspoons of water and stir gently over low heat.
