Yield Makes about 2 cups

Number Of Ingredients 4

1 (12-oz) bag fresh or frozen cranberries (not thawed; 3 1/2 cups)
1 cup sugar
1/2 cup fresh orange juice
1 cup water

Steps:

  • Bring all ingredients to a boil in a 2-quart heavy saucepan over moderate heat, stirring occasionally. Reduce heat and simmer, uncovered, stirring occasionally, until slightly thickened, about 20 minutes (jam will continue to thicken as it cools).
  • Force jam through a fine-mesh sieve into a bowl, discarding skins and seeds. Cool, stirring occasionally.

Tips:

  • Choose the right apples. For this recipe, Granny Smith apples are ideal because they hold their shape well and have a tart flavor that pairs nicely with the cranberries.
  • Don't overcook the jam. The jam is done when it has thickened and reached a temperature of 220°F (104°C). Overcooking will cause the jam to become too thick and lose its vibrant color.
  • Use a sterilized jar. This will help to prevent the jam from spoiling. To sterilize a jar, wash it in hot soapy water and then rinse it thoroughly with boiling water. You can also sterilize jars in the dishwasher.
  • Process the jam properly. Processing the jam in a boiling water bath will help to seal the jars and prevent spoilage. To process the jam, place the jars in a large pot filled with boiling water. Bring the water to a boil and then process the jars for the recommended time.
  • Store the jam in a cool, dark place. The jam can be stored in a cool, dark place for up to a year.

Conclusion:

This cranberry-apple jam is a delicious and versatile spread that can be enjoyed on toast, scones, or muffins. It can also be used as a filling for pies and tarts. With its festive red color and tart-sweet flavor, this jam is sure to be a hit at your next holiday gathering.
