GRILLED CHEESE WITH SMOKY TOMATO JAM RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Make the tomato jam: In a medium saucepan, combine the cherry tomatoes, brown sugar, apple cider vinegar, ginger, salt, cumin, paprika, and red pepper flakes. Bring to a simmer over medium-high heat, then reduce the heat to low and simmer, stirring occasionally, for 45-60 minutes, or until most of the liquid has evaporated and the mixture has thickened to a jam-like consistency. Remove the pot from the heat and let the jam cool. The jam will keep in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
• Make the grilled cheese: Spread ½ tablespoon of butter on one side of each slice of bread. Sprinkle the buttered sides with ¼ teaspoon pepper each.
• Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Place one slice of bread, buttered side down, in the skillet. Spread ¼ cup (60 g) tomato jam over the bread, then layer the Cabot Seriously Sharp Cheddar on top and cover with the remaining slice of bread, buttered side out. Cook for 2-3 minutes, until the bottom slice of bread is golden brown, then use a spatula to flip the sandwich and cook for another 3-5 minutes on the other side, until the bread is golden brown and the cheese is completely melted. Remove from the pan and let rest for 1 minute before slicing.
• Enjoy!

TOMATO JAM GRILLED CHEESE

Steps:

• Place 2 slices of the cheese on 1 slice of bread and top with the tomato jam; sprinkle with a little salt and pepper. Add the remaining 2 slices of cheese, then press the remaining slice of bread onto it.
• Heat a skillet over medium heat. Meanwhile, butter the top slice of bread. Press the sandwich with a spatula or steak weight, buttered-side down, onto the hot skillet. Press until the bread is golden brown and the cheese has started to melt. Butter the slice of bread that is now facing up, then flip the sandwich. Cook until golden brown and the cheese is gooey, 3 to 4 minutes total. Slice and enjoy!
• In a nonreactive medium pot, combine the tomatoes with the sugar, citrus zest and juice and cinnamon stick. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the mixture gels on a spoon (it will look like a thin syrup), about 30 minutes. Skim any foam off the top, then pour the jam into two or three 1-cup jars. Let the jam cool to room temperature before using. Refrigerate for up to 2 weeks. Makes about 2 cups.
