Preparation

Step 1

Stir together figs, sugar and lemon zest in a saucepan. Let stand until figs are juicy and sugar is almost dissolved, about 15 minutes. Add lemon juice and water; bring to a boil over medium heat. Reduce heat to low; simmer, stirring occasionally, until figs are tender and broken down and syrup coats the back of a spoon, about 25 minutes.

Cool completely - about 20 minutes.

Store in an airtight container in refrigerator up to 3 months.
