Simplify: You can replace muscavado sugar with brown sugar, honey, or regular sugar

Always taste the mixture since the different sugars have different sweetness, and you might have to add more

For a challenge: With their peppery honey flavor, Black Mission figs are the best money can buy
22
Fresh Black Mission figs are only available a few weeks out of the year, so if you happen to come across some, make compotes and freeze for later use
