Freezer Persimmon Jam image

Great recipe for that bumper crop of persimmons. Make sure they're ripe or your jam will be mouth-puckering tart.

Categories     Fruit Breakfast

Time 45m

Number Of Ingredients 5

1-1/2 lb fuyu or hachiya persimmons, soft-ripe
2 c sugar
3 oz liquid pectin
1 pinch nutmeg
1/4 c lemon juice, fresh

Steps:

  • 1. Cut or pull off stems from persimmons; discard stems. If Fuyu persimmons are firm enough, peel with a knife. For soft fruit, cut in half and scoop out pulp. Discard any seeds and skin.
  • 2. If using Fuyu, mash pulp, or coarsely chop using a knife or food processor (do not puree); you should have 1-1/2 cups fruit. If using Hachiya persimmons, cut pulp into about 1/2-inch chunks; you should have about 2 cups of fruit.
  • 3. In a bowl, mix fruit, sugar and nutmeg; let stand for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. Meanwhile, mix pectin and lemon juice; add to fruit and stir gently for 3 minutes.
  • 4. Fill 1/2-pint jars or freezer containers to 1/2 inch of rim. Cover, and let stand 12 to 16 hours at room temperature.
  • 5. You can store unopened jam in covered jars in the refrigerator up to 6 months, up to 1 month if opened. Or freeze to store longer; cover and chill thawed jam.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my jam turned out really runny. I think I might have added too much liquid.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my jam didn't set properly. I'm not sure what went wrong.

This jam is a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I'll add a little more lemon juice next time.

I'm not a huge fan of persimmons, but I really enjoyed this jam. The sweetness of the persimmons is balanced out by the tartness of the lemon juice and the warmth of the spices.
