The Best 4-ingredient Tomato Jam in Just 30 Minutes

l have made variations of tomato jam for years. I discovered its versatility creating a BLT feature for Better Homes & Gardens years ago. I love to spread this jam on corn cakes, shortbread cookies and biscuits, of course. But there are many ways to use it. This sweet-but-a-bit savory jam is just four ingredients and cooks in less than 30 minutes. If you like jam a bit sweeter, add 1/4 cup more sugar.
