Cherry Five Spice Jam

Tart cherries, honey, and Chinese five spice blend make for an adventurous yet cozy preserve. 

Five Spice actually has six spices in it (Cinnamon, star anise, fennel seed, cloves, ginger, black pepper), and is thought to be the first barbecue rub. The blend is called five spice because it has five elements of flavor: sweet, sour, bitter, salty and savory.

This preserve is great with a simple cheese, as an ingredient for BBQ sauce, or on a breakfast sandwich!
