I bought some fig jam in a middle-eastern store and the ingredients included "must". What is that?
Answers:
I think its another word for a normal ingredient
6 qt. boiling water
6 qt. fresh figs
Sugar
1 qt. water
8 slices lemon
Pour boiling water over figs; let stand 15 minutes. Drain, and thoroughly rinse in cold water. Pat figs dry, and remove stems. Crush and measure figs; place in a large Dutch oven. Add 1/2 cup sugar for each cup of crushed figs. Add 1 quart water. Bring to a rapid boil; reduce heat and simmer, uncovered, 3 hours or until thickened, stirring occasionally.
Ladle jam into hot sterilized jars, leaving 1/4 inch headspace; add a slice of lemon to each jar. Cover at once with metal lids and bands. Process in boiling water bath 10 minutes. Yield: 8 1/2 pints.
