Figs! Recipe Request by Molly MacRae

With a deadline looming, my post last month was short. The deadline looms ever closer so my post this month is even shorter. I’m sprinting towards June 15th – the date Come Shell or High Water, book 1 in my new Haunted Shell Shop mystery series is due on the editor’s desk. By golly, I’m going to make that deadline come shell or high water. More about the series next month but here’s a teaser: Figs are big on Ocracoke Island where the series takes place.

Here’s the request and reward: Do you have a favorite fig recipe you’re willing to share? I’m looking for three to use in the book. If I’m able to use your recipe in the book, I’ll mention you in the acknowledgments and in a post with the recipe on Mystery Lovers’ Kitchen. I’ll also name a character after you in book 2.

Questions you might ask:

Q: Is this a contest?  
A: Yes. I won’t be able to use all the recipes sent.

Q: May I send the recipe I’ve been using from a cookbook or an online source?
A: Yes, but please tell me the name of the cookbook or website, so that I’m aware. I’ll adapt the recipe to make it my own – and will still give you credit.

Q:What will you do if you end up with too many wonderful recipes?
A: Eat too much while testing them. I hope to put three recipes in each of the books, though, so if I end up with more than the three I can use in Come Shell or High Water, then I’ll save three for book 2 and three for book 3.   

Put your recipe in a comment below or contact me at MMWoolly@gmail.com.

Thank you!
