Prunotto - Fig Mustard Jam 110g

The Prunotto family has grown fruit in Alba, the capital of Piedmont’s Langhe hills, since 1863. Mariangela Prunotto carried that heritage forward by transforming the family farm into a dedicated organic producer, relying on natural fertilizers and careful growing practices that respect both the land and the people who enjoy its harvest. Fruit is picked at peak ripeness and processed by hand within hours, and the farm now runs on solar power, reflecting its long commitment to sustainability.

This preserve draws on the northern Italian tradition of mostarda, in which sweet fruit is paired with the pungent bite of mustard to create a condiment that balances sugar and spice. Prunotto’s version keeps the recipe refreshingly short, combining ripe figs with cane sugar and mustard and cooking them gently into a smooth, spoonable jam. With no long list of additives, the natural character of the fruit remains front and center.

The jam opens with the rich, honeyed sweetness of ripe figs and subtle notes of dried fruit. A gentle mustard warmth builds on the finish, adding a lively, slightly spicy lift that keeps the sweetness in check. The texture is smooth and velvety with a soft, jammy body.
