Why This Recipe Works

For a sweet and tangy burger topping, we start by roasting cherry tomatoes along with shallot and ground cinnamon. Once the tomatoes soften and brown in the oven, they are ready to be processed into a quick “jam” by mixing in store-bought orange marmalade. The result is a sweet-tart, lightly spiced mixture that pairs nicely with the earthy burgers.
