Sweetly spicy chilli jam - red or green. Homemade preserves - paprika jam with chili and sweet paprika

Sweetly spicy paprika jam can be prepared in red, green and even yellow versions. Paprika jam goes well with cheeses, both the yellow ones and with cottage cheese or feta cheese. It will also be an interesting addition to grilled meats or vegetables. I often make myself a quick, delicious and, thanks to the addition of jam, a unique sandwich. I smear a slice of bread with butter, cover it with cheese or ham and spread it with sweet and spicy jam - heaven in my mouth.

Chili jam, where did the idea for such a product come from? It started with a recipe for a mountain omelette from one of Jamie Oliver's books. The omelette looked very appetizing, the recipe was simple but one of the ingredients was red chilli jam. What kind of jam is this, where do you get it? I poked around in my pantry and it turned out that I found chili jam, but... green. It was "Green Chilli Jam" from Tracklements, which I got as a gift. I looked at their website, found the recipe, slightly changed the proportions and since then it has been a product that has permanently appeared in my kitchen.
