Orange Pear Jam Food

PEAR JAM

Steps:

• Mix pears, fruit pectin, cinnamon, cloves, allspice, nutmeg, and lemon juice in a large heavy pot; bring to a boil, stirring constantly. Add sugar all at once, stirring, and bring back to a full rolling boil. Boil for 1 minute. Mix in butter to settle foam.
• Sterilize the jars and lids in boiling water for at least 5 minutes. Pack the pear jam into the hot, sterilized jars, filling the jars to within 1/4 inch of the top. Run a knife or a thin spatula around the insides of the jars after they have been filled to remove any air bubbles. Wipe the rims of the jars with a moist paper towel to remove any food residue. Top with lids, and screw on rings.
• Place a rack in the bottom of a large stockpot and fill halfway with water. Bring to a boil and lower jars into the boiling water using a holder. Leave a 2-inch space between the jars. Pour in more boiling water if necessary to bring the water level to at least 1 inch above the tops of the jars. Bring the water to a rolling boil, cover the pot, and process for 10 minutes.
• Remove the jars from the stockpot and place onto a cloth-covered or wood surface, several inches apart, until cool. Once cool, press the top of each lid with a finger, ensuring that the seal is tight (lid does not move up or down at all). Store in a cool, dark area.

PEAR JAM

Steps:

• Place 5-1/2 to 6 cups chopped pears and the lemon juice in a heavy pot.
• Mash pears with a potato masher to desired chunkiness. If you like it fine you can coarsely grind it. But a food processor will make it too pureed for this recipe.
• Stir-in the powdered pectin, spices and ginger.
• Bring to a boil and boil hard for one minute.
• Add the sugar.
• Bring back to a boil and boil hard for 4-minutes stirring frequently.
• Ladle into sterile jars, seal and process for 10 minutes.
• Yield 7 half pints.

• Mix well.
• Measure 4 1/2 cups of the mixture into a very large saucepan.
• Add 1/2 cup chopped walnuts.

• Place over high heat, stirring continually, until the mixture comes to a hard boil.
• Immediately add all the sugar and butter and stir well.
• Bring to a full rolling boil and boil hard 1 minute, stirring constantly.
• Remove from heat and skim off any foam with a metal spoon.
• Stir and skim for 5 minutes to cool slightly and prevent floating fruit.

PEACH ORANGE JAM

Steps:

• Run peaches through a chopper. I think that you would blanch, peel and pit the peaches before running them through chopper.
• Run all oranges through chopper, using rind of one orange. (just the zest; the whole rind will make it bitter; other recipes are using zest from all the oranges; you judge).
• Add cherry juice to the peaches, oranges, and sugar.
• Cook, stirring constantly, I am guessing this will burn easily.
• Cook until thick.
• When nearly done, add chopped cherries.
• Bring to a boil.
• Put in small jar and cover with paraffin wax (I said this was old recipe).
• Another recipe had you water bathing for 10 minutes to seal; check Ball book.
