Heat the olive oil of your choice in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add the onion and cook until softened, about 5 minutes.

Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low and simmer until slightly thickened, about 30 minutes, stirring frequently.
Transfer sauce to the jar of a blender and blend until smooth. Let cool to room temperature, transfer to a jar and store in refrigerator for up to a month. This is great on everything - chicken, ribs, burgers, shoes. You can literally put it on anything, and I encourage you to do so.

Ingredients:
|

Directions:
In a heavy bottomed saute pan (cast iron if available) heat 2 tablespoons of MOV Extra Virgin Olive Oil over medium heat. Add the onion and season with salt. Sweat down the onions gently until the slowly become caramelized. This will take about 20 minutes with constant stirring. The goal here is to slowly bring out the sweet, complex flavor of golden caramelized onions without actually charring them. Charring them will create bitterness.
During the last five minutes of cooking, add the chopped peppers, ground black pepper, and continue stirring and cooking. Add the hot pepper-onion mixture to the bowl of a food processor along with one tablespoon (if desired) of Cayenne (Fused) Olive Oil, along with two additional tablespoons of MOV Extra Virgin Olive Oil. Process to desired consistency - or like a smooth paste. Adjust seasoning with additional salt and pepper if desired.
Spoon in to a jar and allow to cool. Serve with vegetable crudites, crackers, pork, chicken, sausages, as a replacement for Sriracha, or ketchup, with fries, over eggs, with roasted potatoes - essentially, with everything. Can be stored in a sealed jar, chilled for up to a week.
Makes about 1 cup of savory jam!
