The easiest and most popular method of preparing California figs is by stewing -- and there are many delightful variations on this delicious theme.
Variations:
Add a half-slice of orange for every six figs. Simmer five minutes more. Serve room warm.
Add 1 tsp. lemon juice for every four or five figs, with a piece of lemon rind. Simmer five minutes more. Serve either warm or chilled.
Add 1 tsp. California sherry for every six figs, after figs are thoroughly cooked. Chill before serving.
Add either a piece of gingerroot or stick of cinnamon to cook slowly with figs.
Stewed figs will keep very well in the refrigerator for use at breakfast, as a meal-starter, or as a healthful and delicious dessert.
