2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice (1/2 a large lemon)
2 tablespoons fresh orange juice
2 1/2 tablespoons chopped fresh thyme leaves

BLUEBERRY-THYME JAM



Blueberry-Thyme Jam image

Blueberry jam was the first thing I ever canned, and it remains a beloved preserve. This version includes some fresh thyme, a twist that works just as well on a cheese board as on a PB&J.

Provided by Marisa McClellan

Time 1h5m

Yield 24

Number Of Ingredients 5

3 pounds fresh blueberries, crushed
1 lemon, zested and juiced
4 cups white sugar
3 tablespoons fruit pectin (such as Sure-Jell®)
1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves

Steps:

  • Submerge 6 empty half-pint jars on a rack in a large pot of water. Cover and bring to a rolling boil, then reduce heat to low to keep jars warm until ready to fill.
  • Tumble blueberries and lemon zest and juice into a wide, nonreactive 8-quart pot. Whisk together sugar and pectin in a small bowl, then stir into pot until combined.
  • Bring to a vigorous boil over high heat. Reduce heat to medium-high; cook, stirring frequently and adjusting heat as needed to maintain a gentle boil, until volume has reduced by at least 1/3, 20 to 25 minutes. Stir in thyme after 18 minutes of cooking. Remove pot from heat and check for set.
  • Working with one jar at a time, remove empty jars from canning pot. Using a wide-mouth funnel, carefully ladle jam into jars, leaving 1/2 inch for headspace. Use a clean wooden chopstick to work air bubbles out of jars. Check headspace again and add more jam if necessary to bring to 1/2 inch from the top.
  • Wipe jar rims, apply lids and bands (not too tightly), and return jars to canning pot; cover pot and return water to a rolling boil. Process for 10 minutes. Turn off heat, remove pot lid, and let jars stand in the cooling water 5 minutes to help ensure a good vacuum seal.
  • Move jars to a folded kitchen towel or wooden cutting board to cool completely before checking seals. Any unsealed jars should be refrigerated and eaten promptly. Store sealed jars in a cool, dark place. They are shelf-stable at least 1 year.

Tips:

  • Use a heavy-bottomed pot to prevent the jam from scorching.
  • Stir the jam constantly to prevent it from sticking to the bottom of the pot.
  • Test the jam for doneness by placing a small amount on a chilled plate. If the jam wrinkles when you push your finger through it, it is ready.
  • If the jam is too thick, add a little water and bring it back to a boil.
  • If the jam is too thin, cook it for a few minutes longer.
  • Store the jam in a clean, airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
  • You can also freeze the jam for up to 6 months.

Conclusion:
