Strawberry Chipotle Jam
I found this recipe through one of the "blog parities" we work with and shared the idea with my Mother and she wanted to give it a try. This yummy recipe is From Cook In Food, check them out for lots of good ideas and many more pictures for this recipe.
My Mom made this recipe and brought me a jar the last time she came to visit. It it sweet but has a KICK. We enjoy fit on crackers with a little cream cheese. I think it would also go really well with pork for a dipping sauce.
