Hi paully22,
Nice figs! Do you happen to have a scale for weighing the bigger ?
Do you have pics of the leaves too ?
How many brebas do you get per stem ?
I had read that Daupine should bare as many brebas as main crop figs - but have seen that not to be true here as well.
Don't you make jams ? weight the figs , slice them in squares ,+ 1/3 of that weight in sugar (nothing more, no water) , make boil in a pan and cook for 30 minutes - don't let burn nor stick to the pan- and put in jars. Easy .
