Spiced Cherry Jam
Ingredients
Instructions
- Place the cherries in a saucepan over medium-low heat.
- Sprinkle with pectin over the cherries followed by the star anise, nutmeg, lemon juice and vinegar.
- Once the cherries start to release their liquid in the bottom of pan, increase the heat to high and bring to a boil.
- Lower heat and boil gently for five minutes occasionally mashing mixture.
- Mash in sugar, add the water, and return to a boil until the mixture reaches gel point. The frozen plate method works well for testing doneness.
- Process the jam using the hot water method for 10 minutes, or refrigerate and enjoy over the next week or so.
