Spiced Vanilla Pear Jam

An all natural pear preserve sweetened with concentrated fruit juice.

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.

Caramelized Onion and Pear Jam

Sweet and tangy Caramelized Onion and Pear Jam with brown sugar, whole grain Dijon, and white balsamic, is a lovely accompaniment to seasonal cheese boards.

Autumn Jam with Pears, Mission Figs, and Cinnamon

Highlighting the sweet freshness of autumn figs and pears, this jam is a fall favorite. Tart orange provides a touch of zip, while just a hint of cinnamon adds warmth for those shorter, cooler evenings.

Perfect Strawberry Jam

The perfect, spreadable, sweet-tart strawberry jam. Use only the best summer strawberries for this!

Perfect Sour Cherry Jam

This is a simple jam with the perfect balance between sweet and sour. Simmering the cherries before adding the other ingredients helps to create a juicier, more spreadable jam.

Bourbon Peach Jam

Few things in life are better than biting into a fuzzy, sun-warmed peach, the nectar dribbling down your chin. This simple jam is full of ripe, fresh peach flavor with hints of bourbon, cinnamon, and vanilla. I like to serve it with warm buttermilk biscuits, or use it as a filling for a quick summer tart.

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.

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.

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.
