The Forever Versatile Tomato Jam Recipe

 . You might notice that i use tomato jam in a few of my dishes. The reason for that, is because it is super versatile. It adds a simple, yet complex component to a dish. It may add a subtle sweetness to a savory beignet, or a slight acidic component to a dish with confit pork belly and deviled eggs with black truffles.
Those are just a couple of dishes we've used it for in the past,at the NO.VI chophouse, where i am the executive chef. Here i am sharing that recipe with you. Cheers!
