Ingredients
● 1 kg summer figs (picked one day before fully ripe)
● 800 g sugar
● 200 g water
● juice of 1 lemon
● 1 sprig rose geranium or 1 cinnamon stick

Directions
Peel the figs, put them in a pan, pour over the lemon juice and leave aside for 3 hours.
After the 3 hours, in a large pot, put the water and the sugar and boil on medium until the sugar has dissolved.
Next, add the figs and boil for 5 minutes with the syrup.
Remove the figs using a slotted spoon and put them in a bowl, and continue to boil the syrup until it has reached the desired consistency.
Five minutes before turning off the heat, add the figs and boil all together.
After turning off the heat, add the rose geranium sprig and leave it in for about 10 minutes for it to release its fragrance.
Finally, discard the rose geranium sprig and store the spoon sweet in sterilized jars.
