      Title: FIG RUM LOAF
 Categories: Breads, Main dish, Ethnic
      Yield: 1 Servings
 
  1 1/2 c  Dried figs cut in small part
      3 tb Butter
  1 1/3 c  Boiling water
  1 1/2 ts Baking soda
      1 ea Egg
      1 tb Graded orange peel
      1 c  Sugar
    1/2 ts Salt
  2 1/2 c  Flour
      1 ts Baking powder
      3 tb Dark Jamaica rum
    3/4 c  Chopped walnuts
 
  Preheat oven to 350.  Generously grease a 9 X 5 loaf pan for each
  loaf. Line bottom and sides of pan with waxed paper. Combine figs,
  sugar, butter and salt in large bowl of electric mixer. Add boiling
  water. Let cool to room temperature (butter does not have to melt).
  Sift flour, baking soda and baking powder into medium bowl. Add flour
  mixture, egg, rum and orange peel to fig mixture and beat with
  electric mixer at medium speed until well blended.  Stir in nuts.
  Transfer batter to prepared pan, smoothing top. Bake until tester
  inserted in center comes out clean, about 65 to 75 minutes. Let cool
  in pan on rack 10 minutes.  Remove loaf from pan and discard waxed
  paper. Let cool completely on rack. Wrap airtight and let stand at
  least 24 hours before serving. Comments: Really do let age before you
  eat it;  much better on the second day. This really is tasty and is
  hard not to snack away.
