#canningandpreserving #jam #holidays

This is Ball's version of Christmas Jam. Cranberries, pears, and orange jammed with the flavors of the holiday season. Great to have on hand for holiday entertaining or gift giving.

6 cups or 1.5 lbs. (675 g) fresh cranberries
3 cups (340 g) diced pear (3 regular)
4 cups (1,000 mL) sugar
1 cup (250 mL) orange juice
2 Tbsp orange zest
1 Tbsp grated fresh ginger
½ tsp ground cinnamon
½ tsp ground allspice
¼ tsp ground nutmeg
1/8 tsp ground clove (optional)
2 T. Grand Mariner (optional)

Ladle hot jam into clean, hot half-pint jars, leaving 1/4-inch headspace. Remove air bubbles and adjust headspace if needed. Wipe rims of jars with a dampened, clean paper towel; apply two-piece metal canning lids.

Process in the prepared boiling water or steam canner for 10 minutes, adjusting for altitude.
Adjust for altitude as follows:
1,001-3,000 ft ~ increase processing time by 5 minutes
3,001-6,000 ft ~ increase processing time by 10 minutes
6,001-8,000 ft ~ increase processing time by 15 minutes
8,001-10,000 ft ~ increase processing time by 20 minutes

Allow jars to rest undisturbed for 12-24 hours. Remove bands, check seals, wash and label jars. Store in a cool dark dry place.

This tutorial is for informational purposes only. It is your responsibility to follow all instructions for your canner and water bath/steam canning. Always adhere to safe canning guidelines.
