Steps:
- Gather the ingredients.
- Bring the sugar and 1 cup water to a simmer in a medium saucepan (it should be large enough to hold all the figs). Stir as needed to dissolve the sugar.
- Add the half of a cinnamon stick and whatever other spices you choose to use (or all of them!) and simmer the syrup for about 10 minutes.
- Trim off and discard the stems from the figs.
- Put the figs in the syrup. Simmer about 5 minutes. Don't cook them too long, or they will completely fall apart.
- Remove the figs from the syrup and let the figs and syrup cool separately for about 15 minutes (if you leave the figs in, they will soften and start to fall apart a bit, so if that sounds good, leave them in!).
- Once slightly cooled off, strain the syrup, discard the spices, and pour the syrup back over the figs.

Steps:
- Put oven rack in middle position and preheat oven to 350°F. 3Boil water and 1/2 cup sugar in a small saucepan, stirring, until sugar is dissolved. Remove syrup from heat. Squeeze enough juice from 2 lemons to measure 1/3 cup and stir into syrup, then discard lemon halves.
- Remove zest from remaining lemon in long strips with a vegetable peeler and, if necessary, trim any white pith from zest with a sharp paring knife. Cut zest lengthwise into thin julienne strips. Reserve lemon.
- Blanch zest in a 1- to 1 1/2-quart saucepan of boiling water 1 second, then drain in a sieve and add to syrup. 3Cut away any remaining pith from lemon. Working over a bowl, cut segments free from membranes.
- Spread butter in a 1 1/2-quart flameproof gratin dish or 10-inch heavy ovenproof skillet. Arrange figs, cut sides up, slightly overlapping in 1 layer. Sprinkle with remaining 2 teaspoons sugar and bake until figs are softened and begin to exude juice but still hold their shape, 25 to 30 minutes.
- Transfer figs with a slotted spoon to a shallow serving bowl and put gratin dish or skillet over a burner at moderately high heat.
- Add syrup and deglaze gratin dish or skillet by boiling until syrup is reduced to about 3/4 cup, 6 to 8 minutes. Add lemon segments along with any juices in bowl and pour syrup (with lemon segments) over figs. Cool to warm or room temperature before serving.

FIGS IN WINE SYRUP
Adapted from a recipe on SippitySup.com. I have used both a late harvest zinfandel and a merlot for this. Inexpensive wines are fine, as they are reduced and sweetened. This will keep three days in the fridge. The figs can be frozen in the syrup, but will soften more because the ice crystals will break the cell walls. I suspect this recipe would be good for canning, although I have not tried it. Figs in regular sugar syrups need to be acidified and processed in a boiling water bath for 45 (pints) to 50 (quarts) minutes, which would poach the fruit. They are a gorgeous red color and are good with ice cream, cheeses (brie would be good), yogurt, or mascarpone.

Steps:
- Place the wine, sugar, lemon zest and juice, and spices in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Bring to a boil, then lower heat and simmer until reduced by half, about 1/2 hour. It should have a syrupy consistency.
- Cut an X into the tops of the figs. If they vary in size, cut the larger ones into pieces about the size of the smaller ones.
- Add the figs to the hot reduced wine syrup and let cool before serving. If refrigerated, bring them up to room temperature before serving.

- Wash and dry the figs without peeling them, place them in a non-stick pan (11 1/2 inches in diameter) making sure they don’t overlap. Cover with the cane sugar, flavor with the zest of 1 lemon, cut in pieces, and let rest overnight.
- Then cook them with the sugar on low heat for 1 hour and 15 minutes, shaking the pan occasionally to make sure they don’t burn. Drain the figs from their cooking liquid and transfer to jars with the lemon zest. Simmer the cooking liquid for 10 more minutes on a very low heat, to make a fairly thick syrup.
- Pour the boiling hot syrup into the jars, covering the figs but leaving 1/2 inch of space at the rim. Close the jars immediately, turn them over and let them cool. You should not need to sterilize them.
