Ingredients

  • 1 pound fresh figs
  • 1/4 cup pure maple syrup
  • Zest of 1 lemon
  • pinch pinch of cardamom
  • Dash of high-quality sea salt or pink Himalayan salt
  • 2 tablespoons quality white truffle-infused honey
  • 2 tablespoons of ghee or coconut oil melted

Instructions

  • Begin by sourcing fresh, ripe figs to ensure the highest quality for your Truffle Honey & Fig Butter. You will need approximately 1 pound of fresh figs.
  • Carefully wash and dry the figs. Once clean, trim off the stems and cut the figs into quarters, making them easier to break down during the cooking process.
  • Place the quartered figs into a heavy-bottomed saucepan. Add 1/4 cup of pure maple syrup, which will enhance the natural sweetness of the figs without overpowering their delicate flavor.
  • Zest one lemon, ensuring no white pith is included as it can introduce bitterness. Add the zest to the saucepan with the figs to incorporate a bright citrus note.
  • To the saucepan, also add a pinch of cardamom and a small dash of high-quality sea salt or pink Himalayan salt. These will add depth and contrast to the overall flavor profile of the fruit butter.
  • Cook the mixture over low heat, stirring occasionally with a wooden spoon to prevent sticking and to promote even cooking. Continue this process for approximately 20-25 minutes or until the figs are thoroughly softened and begin to break down into a sauce-like consistency.
  • Remove the saucepan from the heat and allow the mixture to cool slightly before transferring it to a food processor or using an immersion blender to puree the mixture into a smooth, butter-like consistency. Adjust the thickness as desired with a bit of filtered water if necessary.
  • Return the pureed mixture to the saucepan and add 2 tablespoons of quality, white truffle-infused honey. Gently fold the honey into the fig mixture to evenly disperse the truffle flavor without applying too much heat, which can diminish the truffle's nuanced taste.
  • To balance the sweetness and add a luxurious mouthfeel, stir in 2 tablespoons of melted ghee or coconut oil until the mixture attains a glossy sheen and all the ingredients are well integrated.
  • Conduct a final taste test, adjusting any sweetening or seasoning as needed. Remember that a Michelin-level fruit butter should be a harmonious blend of its components, each discernible but part of a greater whole.
  • Prepare clean, sterile jars for storage. Carefully spoon the hot Truffle Honey & Fig Butter into jars, leaving a small headspace at the top. Seal the jars while still hot to ensure a proper vacuum seal.
