Strawberry & Rhubarb Jam image

One of my favorite combinations - strawberry and rhubarb! This recipe makes six 8oz jars (maybe a little more) and is incredibly delicious. Low in sugar and I use 5 to 6 tsp pectin. I don't like sweet jam, so add more sugar if you want it to be sweeter. Rhubarb is a short season (April-July) so get cooking - don't let it pass you by! Enjoy.

Categories     Strawberry

Time 45m

Yield 6 jars, 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

7 stalks rhubarb, diced (1.5 pounds, 3 cups)
6 pints strawberries (equals 5 to 6 cups mashed)
2 cups sugar (add more sugar for a sweeter jam)
1/2 cup lemon juice
5 -6 teaspoons dry pectin (follow pectin instructions on package)

Steps:

  • Dice rhubarb and place in pan over medium heat with 1/2 cup lemon juice.
  • Slice strawberries in quarters and then mash slightly. Measure out 5 to 6 cups of mashed berries and add to pan with rhubarb.
  • Stir. Let mixture come to a boil.
  • In separate bowl, mix together 2 cups sugar and 5 teaspoons pectin.
  • Add sugar/pectin mixture to the strawberry and rhubarb pan.
  • Stir together and let come to a boil - turn down heat and let cook for about 25 minutes.
  • Remove from heat and fill jars to 1/4" of top. Recipe makes six 8oz. jars.
  • Wipe rims clean and screw on 2-piece lids.
  • Submerge sealed jars into hot water at 200 degrees (or boiling) for 10 minutes. You will hear a "pop" sound once jars are removed from water - that is when the lids are sealed. Let cool on your kitchen counter.

This recipe is a waste of time. The jam never thickened, even after I cooked it for over an hour.

I followed the recipe exactly and the jam turned out runny. I'm not sure what went wrong.

This jam is a bit too sweet for my taste. I would reduce the amount of sugar next time.

I used frozen strawberries and rhubarb for this recipe and it turned out great. The jam is just as good as when I use fresh fruit. I'm so glad I found this recipe.
