My husband planted a fig tree and the first several years the crop was pretty small. I found a great recipe for Spiced Orange Fig Jam made in the microwave which was the perfect solution at the Simply Recipes blog. Elise says her mother makes all kinds of jams in the microwave. It's great for small amounts of fruit or for small families. Here's the link if you would like to check it out: http://www.simplyrecipes.com/recipes/spicy_fig_orange_microwave_jam/
