Onion Garlic Jam

A neighbor friend gave me a bag of red onions. I don't use red onions too often so I needed to find a recipe so that I wouldn't waste them. I found this recipe and tried it out. This recipe could also be used for white onions if you want a flavor that is less strong.

A bottle of onion jam.A neighbor friend gave me a bag of red onions. I don't use red onions too often so I needed to find a recipe so that I wouldn't waste them. I found this recipe and tried it out. This recipe could also be used for white onions if you want a flavor that is less strong.

Prep Time: 5 minutes

Cook Time: 20 minutes

Total Time: 25 minutes

Yield: 1 jar

Ingredients:

  • 2 cups chopped red onions or white onions
  • 3 Tbsp butter or margarine
  • 1/2 cup minced garlic
  • few drops olive oil
  • 3 Tbsp balsamic vinegar
  • 2 Tbsp water
  • 2 Tbsp brown sugar
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp red pepper flakes
Ingredients for making onion garlic jam.
 

Steps:

  1. Roast 1/2 cup minced garlic. I never buy fresh garlic and always have a jar of minced garlic. To roast jarred garlic, drain the garlic and spread in a thin layer on a baking pan. Add a few drops of olive oil over the top to assist with the browning. Roast in a 350 degree F oven until browned.
  2. Minced garlic in a bowl

  3. In a large frying pan, heat the butter or margarine over medium heat until melted. Add 2 cups onions, chopped. Cook 15 minutes or until softened and starting to brown, stirring occasionally.Add roasted garlic, vinegar, brown sugar, water, salt, and crushed red pepper to onion mixture. Cook, uncovered, 5 minutes or until thickened. Let cool.
  4. Combining the onions and garlic to a pan.
     
  5. This can be served with meat or poultry that needs a little pizzazz or you can spread the jam over toast and melt cheese on top.

Yes, you should be able to can it, using a pressure cooker. I think it would be too low acid to be water bath canned safely.

I would think so. I made bacon jam and canned it.

This sounds great. I keep a jar of roasted chopped garlic in the fridge. I think I bought it at Aldi.
