Bonnie's Jams Wberry Rhubarb

Bonnie's Jams Wberry Rhubarb is a fruit spread that pairs berries with rhubarb. That combination usually gives a jam where the berry sweetness is offset by rhubarb's tart, slightly vegetal edge, so it tastes less sugary than a single-fruit berry jam. Expect a bright acidity, a soft fruity aroma, and a spoonable set with some fruit texture. The label's "Wberry" abbreviation doesn't say which berry is used, so check the jar for the exact fruit. The most reliable use is on something plain and buttery. Warm scones, toasted sourdough, English muffins, and biscuits all give the tartness something to cut through. Stirred into plain yogurt, skyr, or porridge, it sweetens without needing extra sugar, and a spoonful over vanilla ice cream or a simple cheesecake works the same way. For baking, it suits thumbprint cookies, sandwich cookies, and the filling of a galette or hand pie, where the acidity keeps the pastry from tasting flat. It also does well on a cheese board. Rhubarb-and-berry spreads usually go best with fresh, mild cheeses such as goat cheese, ricotta, and cream cheese, and with creamy bloomy-rind styles like brie. Try it on a young cheddar too, where the jam's acidity contrasts with the richness. In savory cooking, thin a spoonful with a little vinegar or mustard and brush it over roast pork, chicken thighs, or meatballs as a glaze in the last few minutes of cooking. Keep the jar refrigerated after opening and use a clean spoon each time to protect the set and the flavor. Let it sit out for a few minutes before serving so it spreads more easily.
