7 ounces dried Mission figs, diced
¼ cup white sugar
¼ cup bourbon whiskey
¼ cup balsamic vinegar
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 pinch salt
Note: Add ~0.5 - 1 cup water in beginning so that it can simmer in liquid for longer as the whiskey/vinegar boiled off quickly.
Combine figs, sugar, whiskey, balsamic vinegar, lemon juice, and salt in a small saucepan; bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer until liquid reduces by half, about 30 minutes. Cool before serving.
