RHUBARB & GINGER JAM

Steps:

• Wash the rhubarb under cold running water and slice into 2cm pieces. Tip into a large ceramic or plastic bowl and add the jam sugar, lemon zest and juice, and chopped stem ginger. Finely grate the peeled ginger directly over the rhubarb.
• Stir the mixture thoroughly, cover loosely with cling film and leave to one side for about 2 hrs to allow the sugar to dissolve into the rhubarb juices. You may need to stir the mixture occasionally to encourage this process along.
• Pop a few saucers in the freezer. Scoop the fruit and all the sugary juices into a preserving pan and set over a medium heat. Stir until the sugar has completely dissolved, and bring to the boil. Continue to cook at a fairly swift pace until the rhubarb is really tender and the conserve has reached setting point - this should take about 10-15 mins.
• To test for a set, drop ½ tsp of the jam onto a cold saucer, leave it for 30 secs, then gently push it with the tip of your finger. If the jam wrinkles the setting point has been reached. If not, continue to cook for a further couple of minutes and test again.
• Remove the pan from the heat and leave to one side for 2-3 mins before pouring into sterilised jars. Seal immediately and label with the date once completely cold.

RHUBARB JAM

Steps:

• Bring boiling water canner, half full with water, to simmer.
• Wash jars and screw bands in hot soapy water; rinse with warm water.
• (I wash the jar lift and funnel at this time also).
• Place lids in separate saucepan, cover with water and simmer.
• (Note place lids back to back so they do not slide together like they are packed, this will make it easy to get out later.When they start to simmer turn off burner. This process softens the rubber, getting the best seal possible.).
• Chop unpeeled rhubarb finely. Place into 4 qt saucepan with water.
• Bring to boil on high heat. Reduce heat to medium, simmer 2 minutes or until rhubarb is tender.
• Measure EXACTLY 4 1/2 cups prepared rhubarb in 6-8 quart saucepan, they mean COOKED HERE.
• (I measured out 4 1/2 cups Rhubarb and found that when you cooked it of course it cooked down, so this is why I changed the ingredient list to 6 1/2 cups).
• Stir in pectin with rhubarb. Cook for 2 minutes at a roiling biol. Add sugar. Add butter to reduce foaming.
• Stirring constantly, bring to full rolling boil (a boil that does not stop when stirring) on high heat. Boil exactly 1 minute at a full rolling boil.
• Skim off foam, with metal spoon.
• Ladle immediately into prepared jars, filling to within 1/8 inch of tops.(I never fill this full, I only fill to shoulder of jar, but this is what Kraft says).
• Wipe jar rims and threads clean.Cover with two piece lids. Screw bands tightly.
• (I keep a bowl ready to spoon the extra jam, into.).
• Place jars in elevated racking canner. Lower into canner.
• Water must cover jars by 1-2 inches (more for higher altitude).
• Add boiling water if necessary (and ONLY BOILING WATER).
• Cover with lid of canner and bring to gentle boil for 10 minutes.
• Remove jars. Place upright on towel and cool completely.
• After jars cool completely check seal by pressing middles of lids with fingers.
• If lid springs back it is not sealed, refrigerate these jars.
• Kraft kitchen tips:.
• After skimming foam add a few drops red food coloring.
• Altitude chart: above 1,000 ft, increase processing time as indicated.
• 1,001 to 3,000 ft Increase processing time by 5 min.,.
• 3,001 to 6,000 ft increase processing time by 10 min.,.
• 6,001 to 8,000 ft increase processing time by 15 min.,.
• 8,001 to 10,000 ft increase processing time by 20 minutes.
• Every once in a while, you may find your jam does not set the way you expected. If your efforts resulted in a runny batch, try our remake directions to improve your jam. If your jam still does not set, you can always use it as a glaze or syrup.

30 MINUTES TO HOMEMADE CERTO STRAWBERRY-RHUBARB FREEZER JAM

• Rinse clean plastic containers and lids with boiling water. Dry thoroughly.
• Measure crushed strawberries and finely chopped rhubarb into large bowl. Stir in sugar. Let stand 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
• Mix pectin and lemon juice in small bowl. Add to fruit mixture; stir 3 minutes or until sugar is dissolved and no longer grainy. (A few sugar crystals will remain.)

STRAWBERRY-RHUBARB JAM

Steps:

• Place rhubarb, strawberries, lemon juice, fruit pectin, and butter into a large kettle over medium heat. (Butter is optional but helps keep jam from getting too foamy). Stir the fruit mixture to help the juice start to form, and add sugar, about 1 cup at a time, stirring constantly until sugar is dissolved and the juice is starting to simmer. Turn up heat to medium-high, bring the mixture to a full rolling boil, and cook and stir for 1 minute. Skim off any foam that forms.
• Sterilize the jars and lids in boiling water for at least 5 minutes. With a jelly funnel and a soup ladle, pack the 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 over high heat, then carefully lower the jars into the pot using a holder. Leave a 2 inch space between the jars. Pour in more boiling water if necessary until the water level is at least 1 inch above the tops of the jars. Bring the water to a full boil, cover the pot, and process for 5 minutes.
• Remove the jars from the stockpot and place onto a cloth-covered or wood surface, several inches apart, until cool. To help the jam set, don't move or touch the jars until cooled. 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.

Let cool for 1 hour. Refrigerate overnight.
