Onion Jam (Relish)
A savoury pantry hero with a soft heart and a sharp wit.
Affectionately known as “onion jam” across Aussie country kitchens, this rich, sticky relish has reached near cult status in regional Australia. Technically, it’s a relish—but nobody calls it that. It’s a staple of farmhouse cheeseboards, Sunday pub burgers, and grandad’s toasties—and one of those comforting condiments you’ll never want to be without.
Slow-cooked onions are lifted with malt vinegar, mellowed with brown sugar, and rounded out with mustard powder, rosemary, thyme and a gentle scattering of nigella and yellow mustard seeds. The result? Rich, herby and just tangy enough to keep things interesting—a classic condiment with a devoted following.
