FRESH BLUEBERRY RHUBARB JAM

Provided by Ina Garten

Categories     condiment

Time 1h45m

Yield 4 cups

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 1/2 cups sugar
3 tablespoons cassis liqueur, such as Mathilde
5 cups (1-inch-diced) fresh rhubarb (about 1 1/2 pounds)
1 1/2 cups fresh blueberries
1/2 Granny Smith apple, peeled, cored, and small-diced
1 tablespoon grated lemon zest (2 lemons)

Steps:

  • Place the sugar and cassis in a large (8-by-4-inch) heavy-bottomed saucepan. Add the rhubarb, blueberries, apple, and lemon zest and toss well to coat the fruit with the cassis and sugar. Cover the pot and cook over medium heat for 5 to 10 minutes, until there is a lot of liquid and it comes to a full boil. Lower the heat and cook uncovered at a low boil for 35 to 40 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the fruit has disintegrated and the mixture has thickened. (I test a little by putting some jam in a dish in the freezer to check the consistency when it cools.) If necessary, cook for another 5 minutes. Set aside to cool, then refrigerate.

RHUBARB & GINGER JAM

This delicious jam is a perfect late winter pick-me-up combining seasonal forced rhubarb with health-boosting ginger

Provided by Good Food team

Categories     Afternoon tea, Condiment

Time 2h35m

Yield Makes 4 x 450g jars

Number Of Ingredients 5

1kg pink rhubarb, trimmed weight
1kg jam sugar (which has added pectin)
zest and juice 1 lemon
50g stem or crystallised ginger, finely chopped
4cm piece ginger, peeled

Steps:

  • Wash the rhubarb under cold running water and slice into 2cm pieces. Tip into a large ceramic or plastic bowl and add the jam sugar, lemon zest and juice, and chopped stem ginger. Finely grate the peeled ginger directly over the rhubarb.
  • Stir the mixture thoroughly, cover loosely with cling film and leave to one side for about 2 hrs to allow the sugar to dissolve into the rhubarb juices. You may need to stir the mixture occasionally to encourage this process along.
  • Pop a few saucers in the freezer. Scoop the fruit and all the sugary juices into a preserving pan and set over a medium heat. Stir until the sugar has completely dissolved, and bring to the boil. Continue to cook at a fairly swift pace until the rhubarb is really tender and the conserve has reached setting point - this should take about 10-15 mins.
  • To test for a set, drop ½ tsp of the jam onto a cold saucer, leave it for 30 secs, then gently push it with the tip of your finger. If the jam wrinkles the setting point has been reached. If not, continue to cook for a further couple of minutes and test again.
  • Remove the pan from the heat and leave to one side for 2-3 mins before pouring into sterilised jars. Seal immediately and label with the date once completely cold.

Something a little different than the regular rhubarb mix ins! This jam is delicious on lots of things...dont stop at sandwiches. One of my favorite places to use it is on Pork Chops right off the grill. MMMMM.

Provided by TERRI OPGENORTH @Terrio13

Categories     Jams & Jellies

Number Of Ingredients 7

3 cup(s) diced rhubarb
3 cup(s) diced, peeled apples
2 cup(s) white sugar
1/2 cup(s) water
1 tablespoon(s) ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon(s) freshly ground nutmeg
2 ounce(s) dry pectin

Steps:

  • In a large saucepan mix together all ingredients but the pectin. Bring to a boil and cook over medium heat for 20 minutes or until the fruit is soft.
  • Stir in the pectin and boil for 5 minutes.
  • Ladle into clean jars, wipe rims and seal with new lids. Process in BWB for 10 minutes.
  • Store jam in a cool dark place and refrigerate once opened.

Tips:

  • Choose the right apples: For the best flavor, use a combination of tart and sweet apples, such as Granny Smith, Braeburn, or Honeycrisp.
  • Prepare the rhubarb properly: Cut the rhubarb into small pieces and remove any leaves or blemishes.
  • Use a large pot: The jam will expand as it cooks, so be sure to use a pot that is large enough to accommodate it.
  • Stir the jam frequently: This will help to prevent it from sticking to the bottom of the pot and burning.
  • Use a candy thermometer: This is the best way to ensure that the jam reaches the proper consistency.
  • Let the jam cool completely before storing: This will help to prevent it from spoiling.

Conclusion:

Apple rhubarb jam is a delicious and versatile condiment that can be enjoyed on toast, crackers, or even ice cream. It's also a great way to use up extra apples and rhubarb. With a little planning and effort, you can easily make your own apple rhubarb jam at home. So next time you're looking for a tasty and unique spread, give this recipe a try!
