This is the jam that Parisians prefer at home and is served in coffee houses all over the city, and with fresh, high-concentrated fruit flavor, it’s no wonder why. The contents of this jar are made from plump, fresh, black currants plucked right from the shrub, mixed in small batches in the Trinquelin village outside of Burgundy, this vibrant pot is uniquely flavorful because it has the highest ratio of real fruit to sugar that we’ve ever seen.

This jam isn’t too refined to spread on a peanut butter or cream cheese sandwich, but you can also use this jam as a glaze for ham, poultry, or pork chops. Or use it to make shortbread thumbprint cookies. Don’t forget to try mixing it into yogurt and ice cream, too.

Fairway Marketplace is brought to you by Fairway Market, a specialty food chain that started back in 1933 with a small fruit and vegetable stand on the Upper West Side of Manhattan. Today, Fairway Market is legendary for its experts and expertise in all things food, and a relentless obsession with quality throughout all of the different departments in its stores. In December of 2011, Fairway launched this online shop, so that we could bring the best of the best of what Fairway offers, at the same great values, to those who don’t live near one of our stores. Why keep all of this foodie goodness to ourselves? That simply would not be fair.
