How to Make Onion Jam
- Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a heavy-bottomed frying pan over medium heat. Add 4 large yellow onions, thinly sliced, and sauté until softened and lightly browned (about 10 minutes).
- Season generously with 1 teaspoon of salt and 1/2 teaspoon of black pepper. Reduce heat to low, and continue to cook, stirring frequently, until the onions are deeply caramelized and tender (about 30-40 minutes).
- Stir in 1/2 cup of balsamic vinegar, 1/4 cup of brown sugar, 1 tablespoon of Dijon mustard, and 1 teaspoon of thyme. Cook on low heat for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Add 1/2 cup of chopped tomato and cook for an additional 15 minutes, stirring occasionally. The jam should have thickened to a spreadable consistency.
- Remove from heat and let the onion jam cool completely.
- Transfer to a sterilized jar and store in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
