This Spicy Mexican Tomato Jam recipe has been sponsored by Divine Flavor. All opinions are 100% honest and completely my own. I love this company and their goal of delivering a high quality product while taking care of the people and the environment around them.
This recipe has the perfect balance of the Mexican spice you crave and the subtle sweetness of a spreadable savory jam. Get a spoon, because you’re going to devour this whole thing. I wanted to break out of the norm of tomato jam and create a new condiment for tacos, enchiladas, or even huevos rancheros. {spoiler}
I know jam sounds like a weird way to describe this but it’s thickened with honey and is spreadable like a compote/jam. It has a subtle sweetness that adds to the natural sugars in the tomatoes. The spices added like cumin, smoked paprika, and chili powder compliments the jalapenos and gives it a perfect bite of spiciness. Together the heat and sweet complement each other so well. I wasn’t kidding when I said you’re going to want to get a spoon.
