Tips:
- Choose ripe and flavorful chillies for the best jam. Look for chillies that are firm, brightly colored, and have no blemishes.
- Remove the seeds from the chillies if you want a milder jam. The seeds are where most of the heat is, so removing them will reduce the spiciness of the jam.
- Use a variety of chillies to create a complex flavor. Try using a combination of sweet, hot, and smoky chillies to create a jam that is both flavorful and interesting.
- Add other ingredients to your jam to create different flavor profiles. Try adding fruits, such as mangoes or pineapples, or vegetables, such as carrots or onions.
- Experiment with different cooking methods to create different textures. You can make a smooth jam by puréeing the chillies, or you can leave them whole for a more rustic texture.
- Store your chilli jam in a cool, dark place for up to 6 months.
