Steps:
- Tie zest, cinnamon, and peppercorns together in a cheesecloth bag. Bring wine, water, sugar, and cheesecloth bag to a boil in a 1 1/2-quart heavy saucepan, stirring until sugar is dissolved. Boil syrup until reduced to about 1 1/2 cups, 8 to 10 minutes. Add figs and simmer, covered, until soft and plump, 25 to 30 minutes. Discard cheesecloth bag and stir lemon juice into fig mixture. Cool at least 1 hour, then serve warm or at room temperature.
ORANGES AND FIGS IN SPICED RED WINE
Steps:
- Combine the wine, sugar and bouquet garni in a saucepan large enough to contain the oranges and figs in a single layer. Bring to a simmer, covered, over moderate heat. Add the figs and simmer for 5 minutes. Add the oranges and turn them for 3 to 4 minutes, turning them so they cook evenly. Turn the heat off and let the oranges and figs cool in the syrup.
- Remove them to a serving bowl. Reduce the syrup by half and let cool. Discard bouquet garni and spoon syrup over figs and oranges. Garnish with walnuts or pistachios if you wish.

Steps:
- Put oven rack in middle position and preheat oven to 350°F.
- Put figs in a 3-quart shallow glass or ceramic baking dish. Bring wine with sugar and zests to a boil in a 1-quart heavy saucepan, stirring until sugar is dissolved, then pour over figs (figs will not be covered by liquid). Bake figs, uncovered, stirring occasionally, until figs have absorbed about two thirds of liquid and are very tender but still hold their shape, 50 to 60 minutes.
- Put a sheet of parchment directly on figs, pressing them into liquid, then let stand at room temperature 1 hour.
- Serve figs with a bit of their juices and small scoops of ice cream, all drizzled with Sherry vinegar syrup.
- Figs can be made 1 week ahead and chilled, covered. Bring to room temperature before serving.

Steps:
- In a medium saucepan, combine all ingredients and bring to a boil, stirring occasionally. Reduce heat; simmer, covered, until figs are easily pierced with the tip of a sharp paring knife, 45 minutes to 1 hour.
- With a slotted spoon, transfer figs to a bowl; simmer remaining liquid until reduced to about 1/3 cup, 3 to 5 minutes (liquid should look syrupy and coat the back of a spoon). Pour through a fine-mesh sieve over figs, and let cool slightly. (If refrigerating, bring to room temperature before serving.) Serve figs and syrup over ice cream or whipped ricotta cheese, if desired.
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.
