Spiced Pear And Caramelized Shallot Jam

• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 1/2 cup shallot finely chopped, about 2 shallots
• 6 cups bartlett pears peeled, cored and chopped, about 4 to 5 pears
• 1 cup light brown sugar packed
• 3/4 cup golden raisins

• 2 tablespoons fresh ginger grated
• 2 teaspoons cinnamon
• 1 teaspoon fine sea salt
• 1/2 teaspoon chili powder
• 1/2 teaspoon cloves
• 1 cup apple cider vinegar

1. Heat oil in a KitchenAid(R) Sculptured Stainless Steel Stockpot or large saucepan over medium-low heat. Add shallot. Cook 5 to 7 minutes, stirring often, until shallot is golden brown.
2. Add remaining ingredients to pot. Stir, then cover. Simmer over medium-low heat 1 hour, stirring occasionally, until pears are very soft. Uncover and increase heat to medium. Cook uncovered 10 minutes, stirring often, until most of water evaporates and mixture is cooked down.
3. Use a KitchenAid(R) Pro Line(R) Series Cordless Hand Blender or regular blender to blend mixture until mostly smooth.
4. Transfer to sealable jars. Store in refrigerator up to 2 weeks or freeze up to 3 months.
