If you are wondering how to increase the variety of the dishes you have been making so far and your kitchen is plagued by boredom that you want to banish with a new flavour, you definitely need to learn about this delicious product.

Red onion jam will make you discover the flavour of your dishes anew. This delicacy made of red onion goes perfectly with various types of meat and cold cuts. It is also an excellent addition to salads and different types of cheese. Change your standard breakfast into a sandwich feast – add red onion chutney and give your sandwiches more character. We recommended it in particular for preparing a salad with grilled halloumi cheese (or oscypek cheese). It is also an indispensable companion to pates and we also owe it the characteristic flavour of homemade hamburger. You can also add it to zapiekanka or pizza and discover further delicious combinations that include it.

Preparation:

Peel the onion and cut it in thin strings. In a pot, heat up butter and oil, add the onion pieces, sprinkle them with a punch of sugar (thus preventing its burning) and fry them. It is best if it becomes soft at this stage already.

Next, add the remaining sugar, wine, balsamic vinegar, seasonings and pressed garlic to the fried onion. Stir everything thoroughly. Reduce the heat and simmer for a longer while, stirring from time to time. The onion needs to become completely soft, the sauce needs to be reduced and everything needs to gain a visibly darker colour. If the onion is not ready yet and the sauce becomes fully reduced, add some water to prevent burning. After preparation, move everything to jars. After the jars are closed, they can be pasteurised additionally in order to have longer shelf life.

To this end, put them into a pot, pour water up to the height of the jar’s thread and boil them for 15 minutes. Afterwards, remove the jars and leave them to seal on their own. In order to make sure whether the jars are closed properly, checked whether lid’s bulge has been sucked in.

...because homemade is better!
