Strawberry Fig Jam step by step

1. Chop (or easiest way blender) up figs and strawberrys. I always have tons of figs so I make several batches but chop all ingredients first.
2. Put 6 cups of fruit mixture (I say mixture bc I blend it all together) in large saucepan and turn on heat to medium.
3. Add lemon juice.
4. Mix 1 1/2 packets of pectin with 1/2 cup of sugar then pour and stir in mixture until no lumps remain.
5. Bring to a hard boil stirring constantly until the boil can't be stirred away then add remaining 3 1/2 cups of sugar.
6. Stir until no lumps then cook for 10-12 minutes stirring constantly as burning can happen.
7. Keep a spoon in ice water, dry it quickly then drizzle a small amount onto spoon to see if jam sets properly..
8. If it doesn't there's 2 things you can do: 1 add cornstarch (that is dissolved all the way in a separate cup) to jam and test until it's to your liking or 2 add the other half or pectin with 1/2 cup of sugar and dissolve in jam.
