How to Make Blueberry Jam Half Recipe
- Gently crush 2 cups of fresh blueberries in a medium-sized saucepan.
- Add 1/4 cup of lemon juice and 1/4 cup of water. Stir gently to combine.
- Stir in 1/2 of a 1.75 oz package of powdered pectin (reserve the other half for another batch).
- Bring the mixture to a rolling boil over medium-high heat, stirring constantly.
- Boil for exactly one minute, stirring continuously.
- Remove from heat and stir in 3 cups of granulated sugar.
- Return the saucepan to medium-high heat and bring the mixture back to a rolling boil, stirring constantly.
- Boil hard for one minute, stirring constantly to prevent scorching.
- Remove from heat and skim off any foam that rises to the surface.
- Ladle the hot jam into sterilized half-pint jars, leaving 1/4 inch headspace.
- Wipe the jar rims clean, and place lids and rings on jars. Process in a boiling water bath for 8 minutes (adjust processing time according to your altitude).
- Remove jars and allow to cool completely. You should hear a satisfying 'pop' sound as the jars seal.
