The commercial chili jams come in varying degrees of heat and of course if you make your own you can choose your peppers accordingly. In either case the sweetness balances it out to a degree and of course if you layer it over cream cheese as I suggested for a dip, the cream cheese further moderates it as does whatever you’re dipping into it. At the end of the day though only you can decide if you like it or not.At wilderness gathering they sell bacon jam.......... never had the guts to try it. It sounds awful though my daughter loved it. I realy can't get my head around savory jams. Though I love savory stuff. Chilli is a BIG no no for me. Just don't seem to be able to handle anything but the mildest of mild chilli and even that is often too much. (Wimp)
