*** VEGAN FRIENDLY AND GLUTEN FREE ***
The Second Ultra Jam in the Signature Series. Firstly I made a ginger version of Yorkshire Dragon which makes it hotter and sharper. Then I mixed in Sichuan Peppercorns before pouring over a bed of Bhut Jolokia flakes and pods in the same way as The Podfather. About 25 seconds in the Sichuan will give you a numb tingly sensation on your tongue which will then amplify the massive heat of the Ultra Jam… be very careful, it’s got more than a bit of a kick! In fact, up here at Chilli Jam HQ, we call this one ‘Chuck Norris in a jar!’
Ingredients: Tomato, Sugar, Red Wine Vinegar, Garlic, Ginger, Chillies (Bhut Jolokia, Birds Eye) (6.7%), Balsamic Vinegar, Sichuan Peppers. Poured over Bhut Jolokia Flake and Pods, and whole Sichuan Peppers.
Hot-o-meter: Off the scale!

This is a seriously fantastic jam. Like a ninja it is stealthy and effective. The flavours work fantastically with other ginger dishes and is just exquisite in a stir fry; you don’t need a lot of this to make you realise that this is serious – about a heaped teaspoon is excellent for a midweek meal. The heat sneaks up on you with the dark, rich flavours hitting you first and then before you know it you are bathing in a rolling sensation of heat followed by flavours followed by heat. The heat is not sharp but very intense and really does concentrate the flavours of whatever you put it with. I’ll be back for more of this as soon as I can (although I’ve got a jar of the equally smashing 3 Peaks to devour in the meantime and I’ve also run out of the Rib Tickler so Xmas is going to be easy for my family this year!!)
