To begin with this recipe, we have to first prepare a few ingredients. You can cook glazed bacon jam using 8 ingredients and 6 steps. Here is how you cook it.
The ingredients needed to make Glazed Bacon Jam:
- Get 1 lb thick-cut bacon
- Take 2 small sweet onions
- Get 1 large shallot (2 cloves)
- Take 1/2 cup pure maple syrup
- Make ready 1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
- Get 2 tbsp Dijon mustard
- Take 2 tsp Worchestershire Sauce
- Make ready salt & pepper
Instructions to make Glazed Bacon Jam:
- Chop bacon into 3/4 inch pieces. Thinly slice the onions & shallot. Set a large Dutch oven or heavy skillet over medium-high to high heat. Add the bacon and cook, stirring occasionally, until it begins to brown and crisp, 15 to 20 minutes. Keep all the bacon fat in the pan; do not discard (see note below).
- Lower the heat to medium. Stir in the onions and shallots, and cook until softened, 8 to 10 minutes. Add the maple syrup, vinegar, Dijon, and Worcestershire sauce. Season with salt and pepper.
- Pour in 1/2 cup of water and stir to combine. Bring the mixture to a boil, reduce heat to low and simmer, stirring occasionally if necessary. Cook until the the jam has a glossy appearance and syrup-like consistency, about 1 hour.
- Allow the mixture to cool for 20 to 30 minutes. Transfer to a blender and pulse a few times to puree the larger pieces, stopping every pulse or two to stir and check the consistency — it should be thick and chunky, not a paste.
- Transfer to an airtight container. Bacon jam can be refrigerated for up to one month (if it lasts that long). You can also can this to preserve it a bit longer if you prefer (it never lasts that long at my house). Serve at room temperature.
- Note - Some people prefer to discard some of the bacon fat before adding the onions. I kept all of the fat because I used a lean bacon but it is personal preference. If you are using a more fatty bacon, then you may want to drain it and then add back whatever you feel you need when simmering or blending to get the right consistency you like.
