Ingredients
- ½ cup white wine
- ¼ cup plain sugar
- ¼ cup white wine vinegar
- ½ cup dried figs

- 1 small sweet pepper chopped
- 2 tablespoons yellow mustard seeds
- 1 tablespoon yellow mustard powder
- 1 tablespoon ground ginger
- 1 tablespoon fresh chopped basil
- 1 teaspoon salt
Instructions
- Add all of the ingredients to a pot. Heat to medium heat, then simmer for 15 minutes to allow everything to soften up.
- Cool, then process in a food processor until nice and smooth.
- You can use it right away, but I like to refrigerate it overnight to let the flavors mingle. Serve cold or room temperature.
