Ah, the unassuming envelope of onion soup mix. It's more than just for onion soup (or dip). It adds tremendous flavor (and convenience) in all these recipes.

This recipe turned out delicious, but I made some changes. First of all, I removed the lemon before processing and drained the figs. This seemed like a lot of water so I figured if I drained the figs, I could add back what liquid I needed of which I ended up adding back about half. Then I added the sugar and heated briefly to melt the sugar - Yum!
