Lamb Jam...Still a favourite!

14th Mar 2024

Our Lamb jam is still a favourite; a savoury jam made of apple, mint, and rosemary can be a versatile and flavourful addition to many dishes. Here are five creative ways to use it:

As a Glaze for Meats: This jam can serve as an excellent glaze for meats like pork, chicken, or lamb. Brush it over the meat in the last few minutes of roasting or grilling to add a sweet and herbaceous flavour.

Cheese Pairing: Pair the jam with a variety of cheeses on a cheese board. It goes particularly well with strong cheeses like blue cheese, aged cheddar, or goat cheese. The sweetness of the apple and the freshness of mint and rosemary can cut through the richness of the cheese.

Sandwich Spread: Use the jam as a spread in sandwiches. It pairs well with cold cuts, grilled vegetables, or as a condiment in a turkey or chicken sandwich, adding a unique and gourmet touch.

Savoury Tart Topping: Spread the jam over a pre-baked savoury tart base (like puff pastry or shortcrust pastry) and top it with goat cheese, caramelised onions, and additional herbs if desired. Bake until the cheese is slightly melted and the edges are golden brown.

With Roasted Vegetables: Toss roasted vegetables like carrots, parsnips, or sweet potatoes with the jam. The sweetness of the apples and the aromatic flavour of the herbs will enhance the natural flavours of the vegetables.

Remember, the key to using savoury jams is to balance the flavours. Since this jam combines the sweetness of apples with the freshness of mint and the earthiness of rosemary, it can complement a wide range of dishes.
