Creole Tomato Jam Recipe

You are here: Home / Blog / Creole Tomato Jam Recipe

I shared this recipe this morning on the Wake Up! show on Catholic Community Radio. It’s not my recipe. I just happened to come across it. And I’m glad I did. This recipe is from Chef Tory McPhail of Commander’s Palace in New Orleans. It yields 1 pint of jam.

I’ve had a Creole Tomato Jam atop a fancy hamburger more than once when dining out. But I’ve never made a jam like this myself. It’s now on this weekend’s agenda. On the show this morning, I said I would post this recipe in case you would like to join me in a little Creole Tomato adventure. If you do, let me know how it turns out!
