Strawberry Fig Preserve

Heat figs, sugar, and strawberry gelatin together in a saucepan over medium-high heat; bring to a rolling boil. Cook fig mixture, stirring frequently, for 4 minutes; remove from heat.

Sterilize jars and lids in boiling water for at least 5 minutes. Pour hot fig mixture into hot, sterilized jars, filling to within 1/2 inch of the top. Run a knife or thin spatula around the insides of the jars after they have been filled to remove any air bubbles. Wipe the rims of the jars with a moist paper towel to remove any food residue. Top with lids and screw on rings.

Place a rack in the bottom of a large stockpot and fill halfway with water. Bring to a boil and lower jars into the boiling water using a holder. Leave a 2-inch space between the jars. Pour in more boiling water if necessary to bring the water level to at least 1 inch above the tops of the jars. Bring the water to a rolling boil, cover the pot, and process for 15 minutes.

Retire os frascos da panela e coloque-os sobre uma superfície de madeira ou forrada com um pano, com alguns centímetros de distância entre eles, até esfriarem. Depois de frios, pressione a parte superior de cada tampa com o dedo, certificando-se de que a vedação esteja firme (a tampa não deve se mover para cima ou para baixo). Guarde em local fresco e escuro.
