Tips:

  • Use fresh cranberries for the best flavor. Frozen cranberries can be used, but they will not have as much flavor.
  • Choose a good quality onion. A sweet onion, such as a Vidalia or Walla Walla onion, will work well.
  • Cook the jam slowly over low heat. This will help to prevent the cranberries from burning.
  • Stir the jam frequently to prevent it from sticking to the pan.
  • Taste the jam as it cooks and adjust the sweetness to your liking. You can add more sugar or honey if desired.
  • Once the jam is cooked, transfer it to a clean jar and seal it tightly. The jam can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.

Conclusion:

Cranberry onion jam is a delicious and versatile condiment that can be used in a variety of ways. It can be served on toast, crackers, or cheese. It can also be used as a glaze for meat or poultry. No matter how you choose to use it, cranberry onion jam is sure to be a hit!
