Time 1h10m

Yield 7 eight-ounce jars

Number Of Ingredients 6

3 lemons, about medium size
3 cups granulated sugar
3 cups water
8 ripe bananas, about medium size
A piece of fresh ginger about the size of an olive
A few whole cloves

Steps:

  • Juice the lemons. Slice the rinds into paper-thin strips.
  • Boil the sugar and water about 10 minutes. Then add the lemon juice and rind, the bananas - carefully mashed - the ginger and a few cloves. Cook this slowly 30 to 45 minutes. Stir it carefully so that it will not scorch. It will become a pale yellow mush and does not need to be tested for proper consistency.
  • Take out the lump of ginger and transfer the mixture to clean jelly glasses. Cover jars and process in a boiling water bath 10 minutes or seal with parafin.

Provided by Barbara

Categories     Jams and Jellies

Time 40m

Yield 80

Number Of Ingredients 6

3 cups cranberries
1 ½ cups water
2 cups mashed bananas
7 cups white sugar
½ (6 fluid ounce) container liquid pectin
1 teaspoon lemon juice

Steps:

  • In a large saucepan over medium heat combine cranberries and water; simmer for 10 minutes. Stir in mashed banana and sugar. Increase heat to medium-high; boil 1 minute. Stir in pectin and lemon juice.n
  • Sterilize the jars and lids in boiling water for at least 5 minutes. Pack the jam into the hot, sterilized jars, filling the jars to within 1/4 inch of the top. Run a knife or a thin spatula around the insides of the jars after they have been filled to remove any air bubbles. Wipe the rims of the jars with a moist paper towel to remove any food residue. Top with lids, and screw on rings.n
  • Place a rack in the bottom of a large stockpot and fill halfway with water. Bring to a boil over high heat, then carefully lower the jars into the pot using a holder. Leave a 2 inch space between the jars. Pour in more boiling water if necessary until the water level is at least 1 inch above the tops of the jars. Bring the water to a full boil, cover the pot, and process for 10 minutes.n

Tips:

  • Use ripe cranberries. This will ensure the jam has a tart-sweet flavor and a bright red color.
  • Make sure the cranberries are clean. Rinse them well with cold water before using.
  • Use a heavy-bottomed pot. This will help prevent the jam from burning.
  • Stir the jam frequently. This will help prevent the cranberries from sticking to the bottom of the pot and burning.
  • Cook the jam until it reaches a thick consistency. The jam is ready when it coats the back of a spoon.
  • Let the jam cool completely before storing it. This will help the jam set properly.

Conclusion:

Cranberry jam is a delicious and versatile condiment that can be used in a variety of ways. It can be spread on toast, used as a filling for pastries, or added to yogurt or oatmeal. Cranberry jam is also a good source of antioxidants, which can help protect the body from damage caused by free radicals. So next time you're looking for a delicious and healthy addition to your breakfast or snack, reach for a jar of cranberry jam.
