Spicy blueberry jam (a real favorite)
1 Servings
Ingredients
| Quantity | Ingredient | |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | quart | Washed, stemmed blueberries |
| ¼ | cup | Cider vinegar |
| 2 | cups | Sugar |
| ¼ | teaspoon | Allspice |
| ¼ | teaspoon | Cinnamon |
| ¼ | teaspoon | Clovers |
Directions
Combine and simmer till the skins are tender and desired thickness is reached. [NOTE: BLUEBERRIES ARE VERY LOW IN PECTIN. YOU CAN HELP THIS BY ADDING A FEW SLICES OF GREEN APPLE, REMOVING WHEN THEY BECOME MUSHY. OR YOU CAN THROW IN A CUBE OF PECTIN STOCK - RECIPE FOLLOWS] If you don't add pectin, it will be a bit runny but delicious nonetheless, especially on scones or English muffins. Adding some less-ripe berries makes for a more interesting flavor, in my opinion.
