Bacon Jam

• 1 lb smoked, slab bacon, large dice
• 1 large sweet onion
• 1 shallot
• 1/2 cup maple syrup
• 1/4 cup balsamic
• 2 tbsp dijon mustard
• 1-2 tbsp red miso
• 2 tsp worcestershire
• Salt & pepper

Cook the bacon over medium-high heat until it’s a slightly crisp and brown.  Lower the heat a little and add the onions and shallots until softened.  Add everything else along with 1/2 cup of water and simmer over low heat for an hour to an hour and a half, stirring occasionally.  Season with salt & pepper, then transfer to a food processor and pulse a couple of times.

The jam will keep for a long while if stored correctly in the refrigerator.
