From my garden-to-table!
This was actually attempt #2 at tomato jam. The first time I decided smoking the tomatoes sounded like a great idea. And people loved it… but it tasted suspiciously like barbecue sauce. 😂 Not exactly the fresh summer tomato jam I had in my head.
So this time I used the Sun Gold and cherry tomatoes straight from my garden and kept it really simple. Very little added, just enough pectin to make it jammy, because I wanted it to still taste like those sweet, fresh tomatoes straight off the vine.
And THIS was precisely what I was going for.
Toasted bread, Boursin, tomato jam and fresh Thai basil. Sweet, savory, fresh and ridiculously good.
Now if only I could figure out how to grow these beauties all year long!
