FRESH TOMATO AND CARAMELIZED ONION JAM RECIPE

Steps:

• Melt butter in a 3-quart stainless-steel saucepan or saucier or a 4- or 5-quart enameled Dutch oven over high heat. Add onions and cook, stirring frequently, until bottom of saucepan is glazed in a pale brown fond, about 5 minutes. Add 2 tablespoons water and scrape up fond with wooden spoon. Continue to cook, stirring frequently, until fond has built up again, about 2 minutes longer. Add 2 more tablespoons water and scrape up browned bits. Repeat cooking, adding water, and scraping until onions are completely softened and a deep, dark brown, about 15 minutes total.
• Add tomatoes, white sugar, brown sugar, lemon juice, vinegar, salt, and red pepper flakes in with the onions; stir to combine. Bring mixture to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer, stirring occasionally, until tomatoes have broken down and jam has thickened and developed a jammy consistency, 1 to 1 1/2 hours. Remove from heat. Transfer jam to an airtight container and store in refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.

TOMATO ORANGE MARMALADE

Steps:

• If desired, sterilize jars , lids, and screw bands.
• Chill 2 small plates (for testing marmalade).

Simmer, stirring frequently as marmalade thickens (to prevent scorching) and adjusting heat as needed, until marmalade tests done, 50 minutes to 1 1/4 hours. Begin testing for doneness after 50 minutes: Drop a spoonful of marmalade on a chilled plate, then tilt; it should remain in a mound and not run (if necessary, remove pot of marmalade from heat while testing).
• If not processing, cool marmalade, uncovered, then chill in an airtight container (preferably glass).
