Blanch figs 5 to 10 minutes. Heat sugar and water and add vinegar and spices (either ground or whole). Boil 5 minutes. Remove spice bag. Add figs and cook until the fruit can be pierced with a toothpick and until penetration of syrup is complete. (This may take a half hour at a slow boil.) Fill sterilized jars and seal at once.
