Preparation Steps
1
Thoroughly wash the figs and pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel.
2
Select a clean canning jar and place the figs inside.
3
In a saucepan, bring the water, vinegar, brown sugar, salt, cinnamon stick, cloves, bay leaves, black peppercorns, and mustard seeds to a boil.
4
Finely chop the hot chili pepper and add it to the brine. Simmer for 5 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
5
Once the brine has boiled, let it cool slightly before pouring it over the figs.
6
Pour the lukewarm brine over the figs, ensuring they are completely submerged.
7
Seal the jar and refrigerate for at least 24 hours. The longer it sits, the more flavorful it will become.
8
Before serving, let it sit at room temperature for 10 minutes to allow the flavors to fully develop.
