Quince & Apple Company Figs & Black Tea Preserves
- by Quince & Apple
- United States
Tea time is made better with good jam, so it only makes sense that jam is improved with tea. Wisconsin’s Quince & Apple Company makes unique, fruit-forward preserves; the Figs & Black Tea flavor eats like a compote, with chunks of earthy fig suspended in a sticky syrup. Black tea adds a slight bitterness that elevates this condiment beyond one-note sweetness. The deep fruit flavor pairs well with goat cheese, so add to your board with FireFly Farms Merry Goat Round and Murray’s Speck.
“The first bite I had of this fig jam was so reminiscent of Fig Newtons (in a good way). I love it with a creamy goat cheese like Kunik.”
Black Tea (Water, Tea Leaves), Dried Figs, Cane Sugar, Lemon Juice And Pectin
- Quince & Apple holds back on the sugar content in their Fig & Black Tea Preserves, producing preserves that are less overwhelmingly sweet than other fig jams.
- Full-leaf black tea also helps balance the sweetness of the dried figs, bringing just a touch of astringency to the final product.
- While it’s great with goat and blue cheese, this is just as good spooned over ice cream or added to a glaze for roast meats.
- The Quince & Apple Company is a Wisconsin-based artisan food business run by husband and wife team Matt and Clare.
- They make preserves, pickles, and syrups, with a focus on producing not-too-sweet products that work well on cheese boards and in cocktails.
- Their Treat spiced nuts are hand-crafted and made in small batches.
