The range in glass
The Range
Everything currently on the shelf. Batches are small — when a jar sells out, it's gone until the next cook.

Roma Red
Original Tomato Jam
Tomatoes cooked down for three hours until they give up being a vegetable entirely and turn into something you eat off a spoon standing at the counter. Lime keeps it bright, cinnamon keeps it warm, and the red pepper shows up about three seconds after you thought you'd got away with it. Put it on a cheese board and watch which bowl empties first.

High Summer
Tomato Basil Jam
Caprese that fits in a jar. Paste tomatoes and garlic cooked long and slow, then basil twice — a whole bundle steeped in the last twenty minutes for depth, and a fresh handful stirred in off the heat so the top notes actually survive. Cut the same morning it's made, because basil picked in the afternoon makes a flatter jam. No cinnamon, no smoke, nothing to hide behind.

Confetti
Garden Pepper Jam (Mild)
Bell, Lunchbox and Cajun Belle peppers diced fine and suspended in the jar like confetti caught mid-throw. Sweet arrives first; the jalapeño turns up somewhere near the back, just enough to keep you honest. This is the block-party jam — pour it over a block of cream cheese, put out crackers, accept the compliments.

Forty Cloves
Roasted Garlic Confit Jam
Twelve whole heads of garlic roasted until the cloves squeeze out like butter, then folded into honey, olive oil, rosemary and thyme. Slow roasting takes every sharp edge off it — what's left is deep, sweet and savory, closer to a confit than a condiment. Spread it on good bread and dinner becomes an event. Roast chicken, a steak, or a spoon when nobody's watching.

Low & Slow
Classic Bacon Onion Jam
Four pounds of onions and an hour of standing over them. They go in sharp and come out dark, soft and sweet, with bacon, brown sugar and balsamic doing the rest. This is the one that sells out first at every market table, and the one people come back specifically to buy two of. Burgers, fried eggs, a sharp cheddar, or straight from the jar at 11pm.
