Directions
Onion Jam Relish, A really yummy and different dish to WOW your guests It does use a lot of balsamic vinegar You can use the best you can afford but I have found it comes out equally well with the ‘bargain’ balsamic! Created by Texas chef Grady Spears and featured in the November 1998 issue of Texas Monthly , Wonderful relish My supermarket had this bargain balsamic vinegar and I am glad the chef said that would be OK too It is easy to make, the only tedious thing is to slice all the onions But- it is worth the time and effort used about 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt, 4 turns on the pepper mill and a pinch of red pepper flakes Also used a little more than 1/4 cup brown sugar So far I have had it with chicken, on a cheese sandwich and I plan to mix in a little with the tuna salad I am making tomorrow It is very versatile Thanks for posting
