This recipe came from a sure-Jell pamphlet dated 1974. As a new bride then, I was inspired by my sister-in-law to try canning, and I've been "putting up" ever since. I had marked this recipe to make it, but never did. I wish I hadn't waited so long! It is a great "morning" jam---wakes up you taste buds, but without the astringency of marmalade. Great on bagels!

Steps:
- Peel and core about 2 1/2 pouds pears.
- Peel oranges, remove seeds and any loose membrane. (I used "juice" oranges, not navels, for a more intense flavor.).
- Grind or chop pears and oranges very fine.
- Mix well.
- Measure 4 1/2 cups of the mixture into a very large saucepan.
- Add 1/2 cup chopped walnuts.
- Measure sugar and set aside.
- Mix pectin into fruits in saucepan.
- Place over high heat, stirring continually, until the mixture comes to a hard boil.
- Immediately add all the sugar and butter and stir well.
- Bring to a full rolling boil and boil hard 1 minute, stirring constantly.
- Remove from heat and skim off any foam with a metal spoon.
- Stir and skim for 5 minutes to cool slightly and prevent floating fruit.
- Ladle quickly into glass jars, wipe rims and apply lids & rings.
- Process in a water-bath canner for 10 minutes for half-pints, 15 minutes for pints.
- Remove from canner and place jars on a clean towel to cool.
