Blueberry Lime Jam

★★★★★

Condiments

Ingredients

6 cups blueberries

3 cups sugar

1 lime, juiced and zested


Alternate recipe:

8 cups blueberries

2 cups sugar

3 limes zested

1 1/2 limes, juiced

2 tsp calcium water

1 cup sugar

2 tsp pectin

Directions

Mix all ingredients and bring to a boil. Let cook at a gentle boil until a jammy consistency (this may take up to an hour). Jar.

Alternate recipe:

1) Mix blueberries, 2 c. sugar, lime juice, zest and calcium water. Cook at medium heat until blueberries burst and begin to look spreadable.

2) Blend sugar and pectin, then add to blueberry mixture. Bring to a solid boil and jar. The cooking mixture will still appear runny, but jells thoroughly once cooled. (You can check the jell with a spoon in the freezer to be sure).



Notes:
Recipe using pectin gels nicely even when scaled down to 3 c. berries and 3/4 tsp. calcium water & pectin.
