Time 1h15m

Yield 15

Number Of Ingredients 5

4 cups diced rhubarb
3 cups white sugar
3 tablespoons minced fresh ginger root
2 tablespoons lemon juice
3 half-pint canning jars with lids and rings

Steps:

  • Stir rhubarb, sugar, ginger, and lemon juice in a large pot and allow to stand until rhubarb releases its juice, about 20 minutes. Place over medium-high heat and bring to a boil; cook until thickened, about 15 minutes, stirring often.
  • Sterilize the jars, lids, and rings in boiling water for at least 5 minutes. Pack the jam into the sterilized jars, filling them 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.
  • Place a rack in the bottom of a large stockpot and fill halfway with water. Bring to a boil, 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.
  • Remove the jars from the stockpot and place onto a cloth-covered or wood surface, several inches apart, until cool. Once cool, press the top of each lid with a finger, ensuring that the seal is tight (lid does not move up or down at all).

This was printed a few summers ago in the Montreal Gazette. They had found it on epicurious.com. One of these I'm going to try rhubarb, because I've been itching to try it since I found this recipe.

Categories     < 30 Mins

Time 25m

Yield 3 cups

Number Of Ingredients 4

4 cups diced rhubarb
2 1/2 cups sugar
6 tablespoons crystallized ginger
2 tablespoons grated lemon peel

Steps:

  • Combine all the ingredients in a medium saucepan, stirring over medium high heat until sugar dissolves.
  • Bring to a boil and then reduce heat to medium. Simmer until jam thickens and mounds on a spoon (about 20 minutes); stir often to prevent scorching.
  • Transfer to jars, cover and chill. Keep refrigerated.

Tips:

  • Choose the right rhubarb. Use firm, crisp rhubarb stalks that are deep red in color. Avoid stalks that are wilted or have brown spots.
  • Prepare the rhubarb properly. Trim the ends of the rhubarb stalks and remove any leaves. Cut the stalks into 1-inch pieces.
  • Use a heavy-bottomed pot. This will help to prevent the jam from burning.
  • Bring the jam to a full boil. This will help to thicken the jam and prevent it from crystallizing.
  • Stir the jam frequently. This will help to prevent the jam from sticking to the bottom of the pot and burning.
  • Test the jam for doneness. The jam is done when it reaches a temperature of 220 degrees Fahrenheit or when a small amount of jam dropped onto a cold plate wrinkles when touched.
  • Process the jam in a hot water bath. This will help to seal the jars and prevent spoilage.
  • Store the jam in a cool, dark place. The jam will keep for up to 1 year.

Conclusion:

Rhubarb-ginger jam is a delicious and versatile condiment that can be used on toast, biscuits, or pancakes. It can also be used as a filling for pies and tarts. The ginger adds a spicy kick to the jam that makes it perfect for pairing with savory dishes. With a little planning and effort, you can easily make your own rhubarb-ginger jam at home. So next time you have a batch of rhubarb, try making this delicious jam. You won't be disappointed!
