Ingredients

• ✓ baking soda
• fig
• water
• white sugar
• water
• lemon

Instructions

1. 1 Gather all ingredients.
2. 2 Place figs in a large bowl; sprinkle baking soda over figs. Carefully cover figs with boiling water and soak for 1 hour. Drain figs and rinse thoroughly with cold water.
3. 3 Combine sugar and 4 cups of water in a large Dutch oven; bring to a boil and simmer for 10 minutes.
4. 4 Add figs and lemon slices to syrup and simmer for 1 hour, stirring occasionally.
5. 5 Spoon figs into hot, sterilized jars and spoon syrup over figs, leaving ½ inch of head space. Run a clean knife or thin spatula around the insides of the jars to remove any air bubbles. Wipe rims with a moist paper towel to remove any residue. Top with lids and screw rings on tightly.
6. 6 Place a rack in the bottom of a large stockpot and fill halfway with water. Bring to a boil and lower jars 2 inches apart into the boiling water using a holder. Pour in more boiling water to cover jars by at least 1 inch. Bring to a rolling boil, cover, and process for 10 minutes.
7. 7 Remove the jars from the stockpot and let rest, several inches apart, for 12 to 24 hours. Press the center of each lid with a finger to ensure the lid does not move up or down. Remove the rings for storage and store in a cool, dark area for up to 1 year.

By Ronna

Ingredients

• ✓ baking soda
• fig
• white sugar
• water
• butter
• lemon
• lemon juice
• cinnamon
• vanilla extract
• ginger
• clove
• salt

Instructions

1. 1 Fill a large bowl with cool water; add baking soda and stir to dissolve. Add figs and gently stir to clean. Drain water and rinse figs thoroughly with fresh, cool water. Drain again.
2. 2 Transfer figs to a large pot; add sugar, water, butter, lemon slices, lemon juice, cinnamon, vanilla, ginger, and cloves. Stir gently to dissolve sugar, keeping figs as intact as possible.
3. 3 Bring mixture to a boil over medium heat. Reduce the heat and simmer, stirring gently a few times to keep figs from burning onto the bottom, until figs are golden brown and coated in syrup, about 1 hour. Add salt to tame the sweetness if desired.
4. 4 Meanwhile, inspect 8 half-pint jars for cracks and rings for rust, discarding any defective ones. Immerse in simmering water until figs are ready. Wash new, unused lids and rings in warm soapy water.
5. 5 Pack figs into hot, sterilized jars and top off with syrup, filling to within 1/4 inch of the top. Run a clean knife or thin spatula around the insides of the jars to remove any air bubbles. Wipe rims with a moist paper towel to remove any residue. Top with lids and screw rings on tightly.
6. 6 Place a rack in the bottom of a large stockpot and fill halfway with water. Bring to a boil and lower jars 2 inches apart into the boiling water using a holder. Pour in more boiling water to cover jars by at least 1 inch. Bring to a rolling boil, cover, and process for 15 minutes.
7. 7 Remove the jars from the stockpot and place onto a cloth-covered or wood surface. Let rest, several inches apart, for 12 to 24 hours. Press the center of each lid with a finger to ensure the lid does not move up or down. Store in a cool, dark area, and wait at least 2 days before opening.

By Makka

Ingredients

• ✓ baking soda
• zapallo squash
• all-purpose flour
• salt
• butter
• canola oil

Instructions

1. 1 Peel, seed, and cut zapallo into chunks. Place in a saucepan, cover with water, and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Cook until zapallo is soft and easily pierced with a fork, 15 to 20 minutes. Drain and allow to cool slightly.
2. 2 Mix flour, baking soda, and salt together in a mixing bowl, and set aside. Stir together squash and melted butter. Stir the flour mixture into the butter mixture until blended. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead until soft and satiny, adding a little more flour if necessary. Cover dough with a towel and allow to rest 15 minutes.
3. 3 Roll out the dough to 1/8-inch thick, and cut into 3-inch diameter circles. Poke each circle a few times with a fork to make holes and prevent rising.
4. 4 Pour oil into a large, deep skillet and heat over medium-high heat until hot, 385 degrees F (195 degrees C). Place several of the dough circles into hot oil; cook until lightly browned, 3 to 4 minutes. Drain on paper towels. Cook remainder of dough circles in batches.

By Makka

Ingredients

• ✓ baking soda
• milk
• white sugar
• sucralose sweetener
• vanilla extract
• water
• salt

Instructions

1. 1 Combine milk, sugar, sweetener, and vanilla in the biggest pot you have. Place over medium heat and stir until sugar dissolves. Increase heat and bring to a rolling boil.
2. 2 As soon as it boils, combine water and baking soda in a small bowl and stir to dissolve; don't worry if it doesn't dissolve completely.
3. 3 Remove pot from the stove and place in the sink. Add baking soda mixture and stir vigorously as milk will expand rapidly-be prepared! When the mixture returns to its original volume, return the pot to the stove and bring to a very brisk simmer. It may concern you that it will scorch, but it should be practically boiling. Cook, checking and stirring occasionally, until it turns a deep golden brown, about 1 hour.
4. 4 After the mixture has turned dark caramel in color, check it more frequently. The longer you cook it after the color change, the thicker it will be. For a consistency similar to caramel, cook for another 15 minutes. For a thicker, spreadable consistency, cook for another 20 to 25 minutes. For a candy-like consistency, cook it even longer. Just remember that it will thicken up tremendously after cooling.
5. 5 Once you're ready, pour the caramel into a plastic container with a lid, or pour into jars. It can be kept without refrigeration, but with refrigeration it is good for many weeks.

By Lisa Marie Hardin

Ingredients

• ✓ baking soda
• sugar
• corn syrup
• white vinegar
• chocolate chip

Instructions

1. 1 In a large saucepan over medium heat, stir together the sugar, corn syrup and vinegar. Bring to a boil, and heat to the hard crack stage, 300 to 310 degrees F (149 to 154 degrees C), or until a small amount of syrup dropped into cold water forms hard, brittle threads. Do not stir once the mixture begins to boil.
2. 2 While you wait for the sugar to come up to temperature, grease a 7x11 inch baking dish. When the mixture reaches the hard crack stage, remove from heat, and quickly stir in the baking soda with a long handled spoon; it will become very foamy. Pour immediately into the prepared dish, and set aside to cool. Cut into little pieces when cool.
3. 3 If you wish to coat the candies with chocolate, melt the chocolate chips in a metal bowl over a pan of simmering water, stirring occasionally until smooth. If the chocolate is too thick, some vegetable oil may be added. Dip pieces of candy in chocolate, and place on waxed paper until set.
