Fig and Cognac Marmalade

Fig and Cognac Marmalade

I’m a real sucker for Christmas, I love the lights, the treats, the food and the cozy days leading up to the big day. I love the decorating and making of things, both edible and non-edible :)

I especially foodie element of Christmas, where you bring out all your fine gourmet food.  I usually make toffee/caramels that are frequently requested. This year I’m adding a few other things that is inspired from my travels, to my Christmas goodies list.

This is a luxurious, rich and slightly boozy fig marmalade with cognac and rosemary. It’s inspired by long, hot aromatic summer days by the Adriatic sea.

You can of course replace the cognac with another liquor or even a nice white or red wine could really take this marmalade to new heights!
