Christmas Morning Jam image

This jam was a tradition in my Grandmother's house. Its a delicious mixed fruit jam that can be made anytime of the year and is WONDERFUL for a gift. Grandma served hers with big hot biscuits but you can use this on anything, scones, toast, muffins, even pancakes. The curry powder is my addition and I love it but not everyone...

Overall, I thought this jam was just okay. It wasn't as flavorful as I was hoping for.

The jam didn't set properly. I'm not sure what I did wrong.

This jam is a bit too tart for my taste. I would have liked it better if it had more sugar.

I love the combination of cranberries, oranges, and spices in this jam. It's the perfect balance of sweet and tart.

This jam is a great way to use up leftover cranberries. It's also a delicious and festive addition to any holiday table.

I was pleasantly surprised by how delicious this jam turned out. I'm not usually a fan of jams, but this one is definitely a winner.
