1.Each of the letters in FIGJAM is the first letter of the first name or surname of each of the contributors of this blog: we are a group of young Australian chess players. 2.Take sweet dry figs and flatten them one by one. When they are all well flattened take a clean new jar and make a layer of rose petals. On top of that put a little sugar and a layer of figs and in this way fill the whole jar. Seal the jar and leave it for fifteen to twenty days. Then taste the figs and you will see it is a beautiful and delicious dish.
