Wash the tomatoes well and chop them finely.
For a smoother texture, you can boil or blanch the tomatoes before chopping.
Combine the chopped tomatoes, sugar, vinegar and species in a large saucepan.
Stir very well to dissolve the sugar and distribute the spice evenly throughout the sauce.
Bring the tomato mixture to a boil, uncovered, and then reduce the heat and let it simmer.
Stir often, until the tomatoes start to thicken and reduce.
Lower the heat to a simmer and cook another 15 minutes or longer as needed.
Stir occasionally to prevent the jam from sticking and burning.
The final consistency of your tomato jam should be thick and sticky with a glossy finish.
