Everyone enjoys a delicious sandwich now and then. I whip up a batch of onion jam to spread on my son’s new “favorite sandwich ever”-the Over-the-Top BLT. The jam’s addition really elevates the flavor of this humble American staple and makes it absolutely delicious. It’s fantastic in grilled cheese and a wonderful addition to a cheese tray. Trust me, people will love it!

Ingredients

  • 1 large spanish onion or other sweet onion, peeled, cut in half and sliced into thin rings*
  • 1 tablespoon salted butter
  • ¼ cup dark brown sugar, packed
  • ⅛ teaspoon coriander
  • 1 pinch ground nutmeg
  • 1 teaspoon grated ginger
  • 1 lemon, grated zest and juice
  • * Optionally, you can dice the onions

Instructions

  1. Saute onions in butter on low-medium heat until onions are translucent, about 10 minutes.
  2. Turn heat to low and add brown sugar, coriander, nutmeg, and ginger. Stir occasionally and add 1-2 tablespoons of water as needed to prevent sugars from burning.
  3. Reduce mixture until most of the liquid is evaporated leaving a thick jam-like consistency. This process takes about 45 minutes to develop. During the last five minutes, add lemon zest and lemon juice. Remove from heat and cool.
  4. Jam can be stored in the fridge for up to one week.
