The Story of the Recipe
This jam makes you wish it were autumn by the banks of the Seine.
Here is a jam with the flavors of an Indian summer. Subdued and subtly grainy, the chestnut flourishes delicately, the pear refreshes with flavor, and the tonka bean plays the role of the sun's daughter. It’s a jam to savor wrapped in a blanket on an old red leather bench in the alleys of Versailles, in the company of the ghost of Marie Antoinette. It can also be enjoyed in an attic while listening to the rain fall on the zinc roof.
Jar: 100g.
