Jujube Jam - 220g

Jujubes are an ancient fruit variety that has now become rare. When they are ripe, their colour changes from green to brown and their skin becomes slightly wrinkly. The consistency changes, too: green jujubes are crunchy and slightly sour, while ripe jujubes are soft and juicy. Their scent is one of a kind, just like their sweet note that perfectly balances out the fresh pulp.

Making a jam is the best way to enjoy these lovely fruits. This jam is soft, sweet and enveloping – it is an explosion of flavour! It is ideal for breakfast, spread on bread or rusks; it also pairs very well with wholemeal sweet pastry, and can be used to make rustic biscuits or a tart to share.

The Si.Gi. farm was born out of the passion of the couple Silvano Buccolini and Giuliana Papa for the forgotten fruits of their land which is located next to Macerata. After having started to grow ancient fruit varieties, Silvano and Giuliana opened a lab where they make the most typical jams and fruit preserves. These jars only contain genuine fruit, simple and natural processing methods, traditional tools and cooking methods - such as boiling in an uncovered pot - and, of course, the flavour of delicacies belonging to a bygone era.
