Strawberry and Rainier Cherry Jam image

I had a lot of Rainier cherries that needed to be used right away and some strawberries in the freezer that I thought would help them make a great jam - and it did! This jam is now one of my kids favorites! I used really sweet Strawberries, so if your strawberries aren't as sweet you might want to add more sugar. Prep time doesn't include direction 1 (time to thaw strawberries and pit cherries - I usually do that the night before).

Categories     Strawberry

Time 55m

Yield 1/2 pint jars, 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

5 cups rainier cherries
3 cups frozen strawberries, I'm sure sweet fresh ones could also be used
6 cups sugar
1/4 cup lemon juice
1 3/4 ounces fruit pectin

Steps:

  • Thaw out frozen strawberries. Clean and pit cherries.
  • Blend strawberries and cherries in a food processor.
  • Pour mixture and lemon juice in 6-8 qt saucepan. Whisk in fruit pectin and sugar. Bring to a rolling boil over med-high heat, stirring constantly for about 20 or more minutes until jam is at desired thickness (though remember it will thicken up more once the jam cools).
  • Ladle into prepared 1/2 pint jars, leaving 1/4" headspace.
  • Lid jars and place into boiling canner. Boil jars for 10 minutes.
  • Remove jars from boiler and let them cool for 24 hours for a good seal.
