This jam is delightful! Great combination of the peach and rhubarb. It's not too sweet, just a nice mellow flavor. Give it a try and let me know what you think! Ingredients:
6 stalks rhubarb, diced |
10 peaches (equals 4 cups mashed) |
2 cups sugar |
1/2 cup lemon juice |
4 1/2 teaspoons dry pectin (use 6 tsp of pectin for a thicker jam) |
Directions:
1. Dice rhubarb and place in pan over medium heat with 1/2 cup lemon juice.
2. Cook rhubarb until soft approximately 5-10 minutes.
3. Remove peach skins, pit, and cut peaches into bite size pieces.
4. Mash peaches and place into pan with rhubarb.
5. Stir. Let mixture come to a boil. Reduce heat and cook 30 minutes.
6. In separate bowl, mix together sugar and pectin.
7. Add sugar/pectin mixture to peach and rhubarb pan.
8. Stir together and let come to a boil.
9. Remove from heat and fill jars to 1/4 of top. (Recipe makes six 8oz. jars).
10. Wipe rims clean and screw on 2-piece lids.
