Red onion jam is a delicious homemade jam that shows that onions can taste as sweet as fruit. Sliced red onions slow-cooked with red wine, balsamic vinegar, brown sugar and fresh thyme make a delicious spread with a deep caramelized taste. The onions become sweet, shiny and jammy as they cook gently on the stove. The ingredients in this recipe are basic items that you have in your kitchen, but the final product is still special enough for entertaining! The balance of sweetness and tanginess makes it perfect accompaniment to a charcuterie board, burgers, grilled meat, sandwiches, or even simple toasted bread. For those who love homemade sauces, this onion chutney is a quick and simple way to spice up regular meals. Make a batch up to a week in advance and store it in the fridge for convenient snacks, party serving trays, or quick weeknight meals. The jam will last for up to 2 weeks in the refrigerator in an airtight container and is a great make-ahead recipe. This onion chutney adds a savoury flavour that elevates any meal.
