Red Pepper Jam Recipe by Chef Kevin Reimer

Innovative Chef for Meal Ticket Brands, Kevin Reimer, has whipped up an exclusive recipe for Red Pepper Jam. This is a great option for Charcuterie boards when you really want to impress someone.

Although it is deceptively simple regarding the method and ingredients, the flavours are unique and are not typical of your everyday jam. It also goes well in Sandwiches and Burgers.
