Chutneys
Cranberry and mango chutneys combine fruit with seasonings for an accompaniment that goes beyond sweetness alone. These preparations offer contrasting textures and flavors to serve beside another dish.
Fruit Butters
Peach, pumpkin, and apple become smooth spreads through cooking and concentration. Fruit butters emphasize the body of the fruit, with recipes to spoon onto bread or use as an accompaniment.
Jams & Preserves
Strawberries, blueberries, jalapeños, and other ingredients bring variety to these jams and preserves. Browse fruit spreads with different balances of sweetness and heat, following the storage method specified by each recipe.
Jellies
Pineapple and cranberry pair with jalapeños in these pepper jellies. Their smooth, set texture offers a contrast between fruit sweetness and chile flavor in a spread or accompaniment.
