How to Make Ginger Jam

  1. Combine all ingredients in a medium-sized saucepan over medium heat.
  2. Bring the mixture to a rolling boil, stirring frequently to prevent sticking.
  3. Reduce heat to low, and simmer gently, stirring occasionally, for 30-45 minutes, or until the jam has thickened considerably and coats the back of a spoon.
  4. Remove from heat and let cool slightly. Taste and adjust seasonings (add more ginger for extra zing, or more chipotle for extra heat) as needed.
  5. Transfer the jam to a sterilized jar or container.
  6. Allow the jam to cool completely before refrigerating. Warm to room temperature before serving for the best flavor.
