Wild Huckleberry Jam Recette

Comment préparer Wild Huckleberry Jam

1. Gently wash 4 cups of huckleberries and remove any stems or leaves.
2. Place the washed huckleberries and 1/2 cup of water in a large, deep saucepan or pot.
3. Over medium heat, slowly bring the huckleberry mixture to a gentle boil, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.
4. Add 4 cups of granulated sugar all at once, stirring to combine.
5. Increase the heat to high and bring the mixture to a full rolling boil that cannot be stirred down. Boil for exactly 2 minutes, stirring constantly.
6. Remove the saucepan from the heat.
7. Stir in one box (1 1/2 oz) of powdered fruit pectin (such as Certo) and stir continuously for 3-4 minutes until completely dissolved. The mixture will thicken considerably.
8. Carefully ladle the hot jam into sterilized jars, leaving 1/4 inch headspace.
9. Wipe the rims of the jars clean and seal using your preferred method (e.g., two-part lids).
10. Process the filled jars in a boiling water bath for 10 minutes. Remove jars and let them cool completely. You should hear a satisfying "pop" as the jars seal.
