Rhubarb-Strawberry Jam

This jam reverses the usual strawberry-rhubarb ratio and put rhubarb in the driver's seat. Swirl it into Greek yogurt, use it as a topping for vanilla ice cream, or spread it over banana bread. Its gorgeous, pale pink hue would make a perfect Mother's Day gift.

Strawberry Rhubarb Jam with Honey and Cinnamon

The tart flavors of this jam make it a perfect compliment to sweet breads, cakes, and other desserts. Try it spooned over vanilla ice cream or swirled into rice pudding.

Rhubarb Rose Water Jam

This is the perfect jam for a spring tea party. The delicate, elegant flavor is a natural match for croissants or tender butter scones. To give it as a gift, pair with a bouquet of fresh wild flowers or a box of your favorite tea.

Fig, Raspberry and Lemon Jam

You can really taste each individual component of this jam, from the fig's subtle perfume, to the bold raspberries, to the tart lemon. The robust flavors would pair perfectly with hearty, flavorful breads like cornbread or crusty sour dough.

Blueberry Rhubarb Jam With Maple Syrup

Thick, silky, and speckled with tiny chunks of blueberries, this jam has a pronounced maple flavor and is lightly scented with star anise, cinnamon, and vanilla. It would be perfect between layers of French toast, but also try it with buttery scones or cinnamon streusel muffins, or swirl it into oatmeal.

Millionaire's Cherry Rhubarb Jam

A three to one ratio of rhubarb to cherries yields the perfect balance of tart and sweet. Half a vanilla bean and a generous splash of orange liqueur make for one fancy jam. It would be delicious over waffles with a dollop of crème fresh, or sandwiched in a biscuit with a wedge of brie.

Strawberry-Tarragon Jam

Adding a small handful of chopped fresh herbs is a great way to enliven your favorite jam recipes. This strawberry-tarragon jam has hints of anise and lemon. Try pairing it with goat cheese or use it as a filling between shortbread cookies. This recipe yields about four and half jars. Give four as gifts and keep the half-jar for yourself.

Apple Rhubarb Conserve with Almonds and Apricots

I love the combination of apples and almonds, but any nuts will do in this recipe. Try pecans, walnuts, or hazelnuts. Similarly, you can swap the apricots for the dried fruit of your choice. Try golden raisins, chopped dried mango, or dried pears. This works nicely on a cheese plate or with hearty grain bread.
