Delicious Onion Jam Recipe for Condiments Lovers

Ingredients

Servings:
12
  • 2 large onions (sliced thinly)
  • 1 cup brown sugar (packed)
  • 1 cup apple cider vinegar
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon salt (to taste)
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper (freshly ground)
  • 1 teaspoon thyme (dried or fresh)

Instructions

6 steps

  1. Prepare the Onions

    Slice the onions thinly and set them aside.

    Use a sharp knife for clean cuts.
  2. Sauté Onions

    In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the sliced onions and sauté until they are soft and translucent, about 10-15 minutes.

    Stir occasionally to prevent burning.
  3. Add Sugar and Vinegar

    Stir in the brown sugar and apple cider vinegar. Mix well until the sugar is dissolved.

    Lower the heat if the mixture starts to boil too quickly.
  4. Season the Mixture

    Add salt, black pepper, and thyme to the mixture. Stir to combine all ingredients.

    Adjust seasoning according to taste.
  5. Simmer

    Reduce heat to low and let the mixture simmer for about 30-40 minutes, stirring occasionally, until it thickens.

    The jam should have a spreadable consistency.
  6. Cool and Store

    Remove from heat and let it cool completely before transferring it to a jar.

    Store in the refrigerator for up to two weeks.
