Savory Strawberry Balsamic Jam

From Salty Fig

Serving suggestions

This savory summer jam is packed full of flavor, serve it up with grilled poultry or pork. It is a great side with Salty Fig's Bourbon Honey Butter and some warm crusty bread. A few spoonfuls will zip up a basic salad dressing. Sometimes we add a handful of fresh sour cherries from Michigan into the simmering jam too1 just make sure they are pitted.
