Tart Cherry Jam with Port Wine and Cardamom

For those who love bold flavors, Blake Hill’s Tart Cherry Jam with Port Wine and Cardamom is a must-try. The rich tartness of cherries is beautifully elevated by the warmth of port wine and the aromatic hint of cardamom, creating a jam that’s both luxurious and complex. Its deep flavor and thick, chunky texture make it an irresistible addition to cheese boards, especially when paired with blue cheese or creamy goat cheeses. But this jam isn’t just for cheese lovers—spoon it over desserts like cheesecake or panna cotta for a sophisticated finish or use it to glaze meats like duck or lamb for a rich, fruity undertone. The combination of tart fruit and warming spices makes this jam a unique and versatile addition to any kitchen.
