DELICIOUS BLUEBERRY JAM RECIPE - LOW SUGAR OPTIONS

Steps:

• Clean your jars in warm, soapy water, dry, and set aside.
• Measure out six cups of fresh or frozen berries. Rinse them and shake them dry. Pick through the fresh berries to find any stems or other impurities.
• Add the berries to the large stock or soup pot, and mash the berries thoroughly. You could use an immersion blender if you wanted, but it's not necessary. As the berries cook, they will soften and dissolve.
• Following the instructions on your pectin box, add the pectin, zest of one lemon, and the dash of freshly grated nutmeg. Bring the berries to a rolling boil, a boil that doesn't stop even when stirred. Be sure to stir constantly, so the berries don't burn.
• When the berries have come to a full rolling boil, add the sugar and stir.
• Once the fruit has returned to the boil, set the timer for one minute. Stir constantly, and when the timer goes off, remove the pot from the heat.
• Test the jam by pouring a small bit on a frozen spoon and see if it sets properly. If it does not, return the pot to the stove and boil for another minute. Remember, it often takes an entire day to fully set, so if it's a little runny, that's okay.
• While the jam is still liquid, transfer it to the hot jars and containers you want to store it in, and prepare it for canning in a hot water bath or freezer storage. Don't forget to wipe jar rims before you finish preserving them!
