I'm not a big fan of figs, but I really liked this jam. The ginger really mellows out the fig flavor.

This is the perfect jam to put on a cheeseboard. It's sweet, savory, and a little bit spicy.

I'm not a big fan of ginger, but I still enjoyed this jam. The figs are so sweet and flavorful that they really balance out the ginger.

This jam is delicious, but it's a bit too time-consuming to make for me. I'll probably only make it on special occasions.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my jam turned out too runny. I'm not sure what I did wrong.
