Christmas Jam is easy to make if you know how to can, and because you can use either fresh or frozen fruit, you can make it any time of year!
Christmas Jam
- 40 oz. frozen whole strawberries or 2 ½ quarts fresh strawberries
- 1 pound fresh or frozen cranberries
- 5 pounds sugar
- 2 pouches (3 ounces each) liquid pectin
Grind strawberries and cranberries in a food processor or grinder; place in a large kettle. Add sugar. Bring to a full rolling boil; boil for 1 minute. Remove from the heat; add pectin. Cool for 5 minutes; skim off foam. Pour hot into hot jars, leaving ¼ inch headspace. Adjust caps. Process for 15 minutes in a boiling water bath. Yield: about 14 half pints.
