Got so happy doing up concentrates today that I tried my 3rd batch of what I shall call Hot Marmalade Jam, for want of a better name. It started out as a salsa, but the vinegar was all wrong for the lemon drop flavor. The next batch had way too much orange (with pulp) in it. But this one, this one is close...
6 dried apricots, sliced
6 hot lemon peppers (or aji lemon, limon, fatalii or whatever you want to use)
pinch of allspice
pinch of ginger powder
pinch of salt (maybe leave this out next time?)
lots of sugar (of your choice) and/or honey
orange juice and lemon juice in about a 3:1 ratio until liquidity is right
throw it in blender, taste, add more sugar if needed then simmer for a bit
Yeah, I'm real vague on measurements right now since I'm still working on very small test batches. Just trying to get the right ingredients and ratios. I'll worry about adding pectin or something later too.
This is going in the fridge for breakfast bagels tomorrow:
