Roasted Tomato Jam Recipes

Steps:

• Heat a large cast-iron skillet over high heat until smoking. Add the tomatoes to the dry pan and cook, turning a few times, until charred on all sides but still holding their shape, 3 to 4 minutes. Add the onions and then immediately pour in the vinegar. Stir in the confectioners' sugar until dissolved. Cook, stirring often, until the onions soften and the vinegar thickens, 3 to 5 minutes. (The onions should retain some bite; the vinegar should be reduced and be slightly syrupy.) Pour into a serving bowl, making sure to scrape out all the contents of the skillet. Season with the flaky sea salt and drizzle olive oil over the top. Garnish with the basil.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400°. In large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons oil over medium-high heat; saute onion until softened. Reduce heat to medium-low; cook until golden brown, 25-30 minutes, stirring occasionally., Toss tomatoes with 1 tablespoon oil, 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/8 teaspoon pepper; spread in a 15x10x1-in. pan. Roast until softened, 10-15 minutes. Stir tomatoes into onion, mashing lightly. In small bowl, mix cream cheese, blue cheese, garlic and the remaining salt and pepper., Brush bread slices with remaining oil; grill, covered, over medium heat until lightly toasted, 1-2 minutes per side. Sprinkle steaks with steak seasoning. Grill, covered, over medium heat until meat reaches desired doneness (for medium-rare, a thermometer should read 135°; medium, 140°; medium-well, 145°), 3-5 minutes per side. Let stand 5 minutes before slicing., To serve, spread toasts with cheese mixture; top with steak and onion mixture. Drizzle with vinegar.

Steps:

• Score an X in the bottom of 3 pounds of tomatoes and cook in boiling water for about 30 seconds. Drain, transfer to a bowl of ice water, then peel and dice. Combine the tomatoes with 1 cup granulated sugar, 1/2 cup light brown sugar and 2 tablespoons cider vinegar in a large pot over medium heat. Add 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt, 1/4 teaspoon each ground coriander and cumin and the juice of 1 lemon. Cook, stirring, until thick, about 1 hour; let cool. Serve with cheese and crackers.

Steps:

• Pour 1/3 of the sugar over the base of a 12-inch braising pan or other baking dish. Layer half the tomatoes, overlapping the slices, in the pan. Sprinkle with 1/3 cup sugar, and top with the lemon zest, lemon juice, cinnamon stick, fennel seeds, and chiles. Top with the remaining tomatoes, followed by the rest of the sugar. Let sit for 30 minutes. Heat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Place the pan, uncovered in the oven and let cook for 1 hour. The tomato juices should simmer actively. Check every 20 minutes, spooning the juices over the top tomatoes, and removing the chiles if they char.
• The tomato juices should begin to gel at 2 hours, but it could happen a little sooner or later. Test the juices by spooning a little onto a plate, letting it cool, and running your finger though it. If it holds the line, the jam is ready. Remove the jam from the oven and let cool. I eat this jam fresh so I put it into jars and keep it in the fridge.

Steps:

• Combine all ingredients in a heavy medium saucepan, Bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring often.
• Reduce heat and simmer, stirring occasionally, until mixture has consistency of thick jam, about 1 hour 15 minutes. Taste and adjust seasoning, then cool and refrigerate until ready to use; this will keep at least a week.

Steps:

• Cook the bacon in a large skillet over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until evenly browned, about 10 minutes. Drain the bacon slices on paper towels. Crumble bacon when cool.
• Stir tomatoes, sweet onion, sugar, apple cider vinegar, salt, black pepper, and hot sauce together in a saucepan and bring to a boil, stirring constantly to dissolve sugar. Stir in crumbled bacon and cook over medium heat, stirring often, until the spread is very thick, about 1 hour. Adjust salt and black pepper.
• Cool and spoon into a 1-pint glass jar with a lid; keeps refrigerated for 1 week or frozen for 2 months. If freezing, put spread into small jars and let jars thaw in refrigerator overnight before using.
