STRAWBERRY JAM WITH KIWI



Strawberry Jam With Kiwi image

Strawberry turns out to be one of the more difficult jams to make. It's often runny. But if you just add a kiwi, packed with natural pectin, it will make any jam gel. Kiwi's flavor is subtle, slightly tart and not at all intrusive. I add mint to the mix to bump up the candy-sweet flavor of the berries. Your jam will hold together beautifully, tasting of strawberries and sunshine and nothing more.

Time 2h

Yield 5 half-pint (8-ounce) jars

Number Of Ingredients 7

3 pounds ripe fresh strawberries
1 kiwi
3 cups sugar
Juice of one lemon
4 sprigs of mint, preferably peppermint
1 vanilla bean, optional
1/2 teaspoon unsalted butter

Steps:

  • Wash, dry, hull and stem berries, then dice into 1/2-inch pieces, about 8 cups.
  • Peel and dice the kiwi into 1/2-inch pieces.
  • Stir together the berries, kiwi, sugar and lemon juice in a large bowl. Add the mint, and split and add the vanilla bean, if using.
  • Cover and leave out to macerate for 2 hours, or refrigerate up to 1 day, until ready to cook.
  • To process the jam for longer shelf life, begin by sterilizing the jars. (If you want to skip canning, the jam keeps in the refrigerator for up to a month; jump to Step 7.) Place a round rack or a folded kitchen towel in a large pot, fill with water and bring to a boil. Add 5 half-pint canning jars and boil for 10 minutes. Jars may be left in the warm water until ready to be filled. (Alternatively, sterilize jars by running them through a dishwasher cycle.)
  • Place canning rings in a small saucepan, cover with water and bring to a boil. Turn off heat and add lids to soften gaskets. Rings and lids may be left in water until jars are filled.
  • In a large, heavy, nonreactive pot, add the berry mixture. Clip on a candy thermometer. Bring to medium-high, stir often as mixture comes to a boil. When it reaches a hard boil, stir relentlessly.
  • Cook on medium-high heat, being careful to keep stirring to avoid sticking and burning as the mixture thickens. Adjust heat as needed if the jam begins to spit, without losing the boil. Continue to stir. The mixture will be very foamy.
  • After 30 to 40 minutes, the jam will reach 210 degrees; the jam will be thick and the foam on the surface will begin to dissipate, showing clear preserves below. Add the butter and stir well; most of the foam will break up. Scoop off any remaining foam with a clean spoon. Turn off heat and discard the mint. The vanilla bean may be reused. If you're making refrigerator jam, the preserves are ready and can be stored in a jar.
  • If you are processing the jam in sealed jars to keep up to a year in the pantry, carefully ladle the hot preserves into warm jars, leaving 1/2-inch head space. Run a plastic knife gently around inside of jar to remove any air bubbles. Recheck head space. Wipe jar rims clean with a damp towel. Place lids on jars, screw on rings and lower jars back into pot of boiling water. Return to full boil and boil jars for 10 minutes. Transfer jars to a folded towel and let cool for 12 hours; you should hear them ping as they seal.
  • Once cool, test seals by removing rings and lifting jars by their flat lids. If the lid releases, the seal has not formed. Unsealed jars should be refrigerated and used within a month, or reprocessed. (Rings and jars may be reused, but a new flat lid must be used each time jars are processed.) To reprocess, reheat syrup to boiling then continue as before.

Time 20m

Yield 128

Number Of Ingredients 6

4 pints ripe strawberries, hulled
3 kiwifruits, peeled and finely diced
4 cups white sugar
1 (1.75 ounce) package fruit pectin (such as Sure-Jell® Pectin Light for less or no sugar)
1 ½ teaspoons green peppercorns in brine, drained
1 ½ teaspoons crushed mixed peppercorns

Steps:

  • Inspect 8 half-pint jars for cracks and rings for rust, discarding any defective ones. Immerse in simmering water until jam is ready. Wash new, unused lids and rings in warm soapy water.
  • Crush strawberries and measure; you should have about 5 cups.
  • Combine crushed strawberries and kiwi fruits in a large pot and slowly bring to a boil over medium-low heat. Stir in pectin and slowly bring mixture to a full rolling boil that does not stop bubbling when stirred. Add sugar and stir to dissolve. Return to a full rolling boil on high heat and boil for exactly 1 minute, stirring constantly. Skim off any foam with a ladle or a large spoon.
  • Remove pot from heat. Stir in green peppercorns and mixed peppercorns.
  • Ladle strawberry jam immediately into the prepared jars, filling to within 1/4 inch of the top. Run a clean knife or thin spatula around the insides of the jars to remove any air bubbles. Wipe rims with a moist paper towel to remove any spills. Top with lids and tightly 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 2 inches apart into the boiling water using a holder. Pour in more boiling water to cover jars by at least 1 inch. Bring to a rolling boil, cover, and process for 10 minutes.
  • Remove the jars from the stockpot and place onto a cloth-covered or wood surface, several inches apart. Let rest for 24 hours without moving the jars. Gently press the center of each lid with a finger to ensure the lid does not move up or down. Remove the rings for storage and store in a cool, dark area.

STRAWBERRY-KIWI JAM



Strawberry-Kiwi Jam image

This comes from the Ball Blue Book - it is absolutely one of my favorites! The crystallized ginger makes it so special! The butter reduces the foam making skimming unnecessary but don't add more than 1/2 teaspoon as this may raise the ph level too much and make the recipe unsafe for canning. In canning recipes it is best to use bottled lemon juice which has a stable, known ph because fresh lemon juice can vary in acidity.
