Eggplant Jam

Kamakian Eggplant Jam with Cinnamon is a rare and cherished Armenian delicacy. Made with tiny whole eggplants, hand-selected at peak ripeness, each one is gently cooked in a cinnamon-scented syrup until tender and glossy. The result is a deeply aromatic, sweet preserve with warm spice and a soft, melt-in-your-mouth texture.

This traditional jam is prepared using a family recipe passed down through generations, honoring the slow, careful methods of Armenian home kitchens.

It’s best enjoyed alongside salty majdouli or halloumi cheese, where its rich sweetness offers a striking contrast of flavor and texture.

Tip: Try it on hot, buttered toast with your favorite tea, or serve it with a slice of soft Armenian brioche, Tsheureg, for a comforting and nostalgic treat.
