New Delhi, Nov. 2 -- Apart from breads, jams can be eaten with rotis, dosas-and even jalebis. With a sweet item, such as a jalebi or cake, it must act like a fruit compote. A jam fiend (like me) believes its usefulness is defined by its versatility and how well it pairs with all kinds of foods. The apple jam from the small, Himachali brand Shillar House proves this theory. Its mild sweetness and a distinct earthy flavour makes it a multi-purpose condiment. It has become a daily fixture and I have eaten it with methi parathas too. I like a jam with some texture and it is generously filled with chunks of apples. Now, I am left with a nearly-empty bottle, and it's time to place another order that might arrive right in time for Diwali. -Jahna...
