BACON AND TOMATO JAM
This was recently published in my local newspaper. They recommended it on grilled cheese, hamburgers and tuna salad. I am sure it would be very good with many other things as well.

Steps:
- Make the filling: Toss the bacon into a large skillet with a few drops of olive oil. Bring the pan to medium heat and cook the bacon until brown and crisp, about 13 minutes. Spoon off about half of the drippings. Add the onion to the pan and season with salt and the red pepper flakes. Continue to cook, stirring occasionally, until the onion is soft and very aromatic, 8 to 10 more minutes. Add the tomato, season with more salt and cook another 8 to 10 minutes, or until the tomato is soft and mushy and most of the liquid has evaporated. Taste and reseason if needed. Stir in the oregano and let cool.
- Make the French toast: Preheat the oven to 200 degrees F. In a wide dish, combine the eggs, milk, cayenne (if using) and a pinch of salt. Beat until smooth and homogeneous.
- Lay 4 slices of bread on a work surface. Sprinkle each piece of bread lightly with cheese (use about half of the cheese). Spoon a quarter of the bacon filling onto each piece of bread, then sprinkle with the remaining cheese. Top each slice with another piece of bread and press to secure. Working in batches, soak each "toast" in the egg mixture, about 1 minute; flip and soak the other side.
- While the toasts are soaking, coat a large saute pan with olive oil and bring the pan to medium heat. Working in batches so you don't crowd the pan, cook the toasts for 2 to 3 minutes per side. The toasts should be golden brown, lovely and crisp-YUM! Transfer the toasts to a baking sheet and place in the oven to keep warm.
- Make the eggs and assemble: Coat a large nonstick skillet lightly with olive oil and bring to medium heat. Add the eggs to the pan, working in batches if necessary. Cook until the whites are cooked through and the yolks are warm and runny, 3 to 4 minutes. Remove the toasts from the oven and top each with a perfectly fried egg. Sprinkle with chives and serve immediately.
Tips:
- Choose ripe, flavorful tomatoes. This will ensure that your jam has the best possible flavor.
- Use a variety of tomatoes. This will give your jam a more complex flavor. Try using a mix of Roma, cherry, and heirloom tomatoes.
- Don't be afraid to experiment with different herbs and spices. This is a great way to customize your jam and make it your own. Some good options include basil, thyme, oregano, garlic, and chili peppers.
- Cook the jam until it reaches the desired consistency. This can take anywhere from 30 minutes to an hour. If you want a thicker jam, cook it for longer. If you want a thinner jam, cook it for less time.
- Let the jam cool completely before storing it. This will help it to thicken and set.
Conclusion:
Bacon and tomato jam is a delicious and versatile condiment that can be used in a variety of ways. It's great on sandwiches, burgers, and hot dogs. It can also be used as a dipping sauce for chicken, fish, or vegetables. And it's even good enough to eat on its own! So next time you're looking for a new and exciting way to use your tomatoes, give bacon and tomato jam a try. You won't be disappointed.
