Orange Rosemary Fig Jam image

This exquisite sweet fig jam has layers of flavor from the orange zest and Grand Marnier, then hints of Rosemary and a slight kick from cayenne chili's. This is a nice way to bring your roast pork, chicken over the top. Thin and use as a glaze or use as an accompaniment.
