aNeen Eudy believes it’s time to elevate jam beyond the breakfast table. “There are so many different things you can do with it besides putting it on a buttered biscuit,” she says. A state championship-winning volleyball coach at Bushland High School, Eudy also owns Jam! That’s Good!, a beloved vendor at the Amarillo Community Market. She says jam is an always-available ingredient that can take dishes to the next level. “It’s a really fast, already-prepared condiment that can be sweet or savory,” she says. Her skillet-cooked salmon
uses blackberry jam sauce to create a delicious glaze. To accompany chicken wings, she adds sauteed garlic, Sriracha sauce, and rice wine vinegar to jalapeño-plum jam, then cooks it down to create a thick, sweet-spicy combination. And her cherry crumble is an easy dessert bar Eudy has been making for years. “Sometimes I take it to my volleyball girls as a snack after practice or on the bus,” she says. “It’s great with whatever your favorite flavor of jam is.” PHOTOS BY SHANNON RICHARDSON RECIPES COURTESY OF JANEEN EUDY, JAM!
