A fantastic way to use and keep an abundance of tomatoes, this jam can be made with any variety or combination, from vine tomatoes to large beefsteaks. Classic spices from the Moroccan pantry—cinnamon, cayenne, and ras el hanout—imbue it with warmth.

Ras el hanout is a vibrant, aromatic blend of spices that varies widely by spice shop or family—some versions might have 30 different ingredients, while others only four or five. The prominent flavor is typically a combination of sweet, like cinnamon, and savory, like cumin and coriander. If you can’t find it, don’t worry, but you may want to add 1/4 teaspoon each of cumin, coriander, and cloves to the recipe.
