Pomegranate jam is a product part of the agri-food heritage of Tunisia, usually eaten with olive oil and traditional bread, but also to be served with biscuits and fresh cheeses. This makes pomegranate jam a great choice for breakfast. Sometimes roasted sesame seeds are added to give the jam a special aroma.

To preserve its flavour and health-promoting properties, the jam should be made the same day the fruit is harvested.
