Fresh Fig and Bacon Jam

4 slices of bacon, diced

1/2 large yellow onion, cut into 1/3-inch slices

1 clove garlic, minced

1 C water

1 lb fresh figs, halved (quartered if very large)

2 Tbsp AoO Black Mission Fig Balsamic

2 Tbsp honey

In a pot or pan with a lid, cook the bacon over medium-high heat until crispy.

Use a slotted spoon to remove the bacon to a small paper-towel lined plate.

Reduce heat to low-medium, pour off all but 1 Tbsp bacon grease and add the onions to the pan.

Cook covered and stirring occasionally, for 15-20 minutes until onions have begun to caramelize (if they start to scorch before then, add 1/4 cup water and cover again).

Increase heat to medium, add the garlic, and stir, cooking for 1 minute more.

Add the water, figs, balsamic, and honey to the pot and cover, cooking for 20 minutes and stirring once or twice.

Remove the lid and continue cooking, stirring occasionally, for another 20 minutes until almost all of the liquid has reduced - when you draw your spoon through the fig mixture, there should be no almost no liquid running into the spoon track.

Let cool for 15 minutes and then transfer to a blender and pulse several times until you get the spreadable consistency you are looking for - it doesn't need to be puree-smooth.

Will keep in the fridge for at least 8 days. It potentially could last much longer (like the source recipe) but I'll probably never ever leave it alone long enough to find out.
