Instructions

1
Set a medium to small stainless steel sauce pot over medium heat, add oil and allow to heat up until oil is shimmering.
2
Add onions and dates along with a pinch of salt and pepper. Cook over medium heat until dates begin to dissolve and onions soften, approximately 10 to 15 minutes.
3
Add brown sugar and water, stir to dissolve. Continue to cook for at least 5 minutes, until onions become a deep dark color and mixture thickens.
4
Add vinegar and stir to combine. Continue to cook until all liquid has evaporated and mixture is thick with a jam-like texture.
5
Remove from heat, stir in vanilla extract then season to taste with a pinch of salt and pepper to balance flavor.
6
Set aside so jam can cool slowly in pan. This will allow all flavors to meld.
7
Once cool, place jam in an airtight container and store refrigerated for up to a week or more.
8
Chef's Note: Serve jam on crostini with goat cheese or add to a burger for greater depth of flavor.
