I love North African flavors, they always offer enticing and exotic (for me) things that add a real sparkle to everyday foods. This little treat comes from: "From the Lands of Figs and Olives" by Habeeb Salloum and James Peters and it's the easiest jam you'll ever make.

Tips:

Use ripe dates for the best flavor and texture. Fresh or dried dates can be used, but if using dried dates, soak them in warm water for 10 minutes before using.
If you don't have a food processor, you can mash the dates by hand. However, a food processor will give you a smoother texture.
Add water or orange juice to the mixture if it's too thick. You want the jam to be spreadable, but not too runny.
If you like a sweeter jam, add more honey or sugar. You can also add a pinch of salt to balance out the sweetness.
Store the jam in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.

Conclusion:

Maraba tamer date jam is a delicious and versatile condiment that can be used in a variety of ways. It's perfect for spreading on toast, crackers, or yogurt. You can also use it as a filling for pastries or cakes, or as a glaze for chicken or fish. No matter how you choose to use it, maraba tamer date jam is sure to please your taste buds.
