Description

A vibrant jam with California raisins, orange, and ginger. Sweet, spicy, and perfect for any occasion!


Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 1 1/4 cups (296 ml) golden California Raisins
  • 3/4 cups (177 ml) natural California Raisins
  • fine zest of 1 orange
  • 2 oranges, peeled and roughly chopped
  • 1 cups (237 ml) light brown sugar
  • 1 cups (237 ml) honey
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons rice vinegar
  • 1/4 cups (59 ml) finely chopped shallots
  • 2 teaspoons Sriracha
  • 1 tablespoons finely chopped fresh ginger
  • 2 teaspoons ground coriander

Instructions

  1. Place all ingredients except orange zest in a medium, heavy-bottomed pot.
  2. Over medium heat, bring to a boil, stirring constantly.
  3. Reduce to a simmer and cook, stirring occasionally, for 15–20 minutes, or until just beginning to get syrupy.
  4. Remove from heat and stir in orange zest.
  5. Ladle into clean, dry jars.
  6. Cover and allow to cool completely before refrigerating.

Notes

  • For a smoother jam, use an immersion blender to partially puree the mixture after simmering.
  • Adjust the amount of Sriracha to control the level of spiciness to your preference.
  • Store the jam in the refrigerator for up to 3 weeks; it will thicken as it cools.
