Description
Sweet and sticky tomato jam with an intense, concentrated tomato flavor! Accented with ginger, brown sugar, and spices! Perfect for biscuits, crackers, burgers, and a million other things!
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 pounds plum or Roma tomatoes, cored and cut into 1-inch pieces
- 1/2 pound cherry tomatoes, halved
- 1/2 cup packed dark brown sugar
- 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
- 1 tablespoon grated fresh peeled ginger (about 1-inch knob)
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1/4 teaspoon smoked sweet paprika
- 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes
Instructions
- Combine all of the ingredients in a heavy-bottomed Dutch oven. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally. Once boiling, reduce the heat to medium-low and continue to cook until the jam has thickened, about 1-1/2 to 2 hours. Continue to stir occasionally. If desired, you can pick out any pieces of skin you see in the jam as it cooks-the skins will come apart from the tomato flesh as they cook. The jam is done when it is a deep red color and thickened; you should be able to scrape a spoon across the bottom of the pot with no liquid remaining. Cool to room temperature and refrigerate.
Notes
This is a refrigerator jam, so make sure to seal tightly and store in the refrigerator only for up to 2 weeks.
