How to Make Mango Lime Refrigerator Jam

  1. Combine mango chunks, lime juice, lime zest, sugar, and pectin in a large saucepan.
  2. Bring mixture to a rolling boil over medium-high heat, stirring constantly.
  3. Boil hard for 1 minute, stirring constantly to prevent scorching.
  4. Remove from heat and skim off any foam that has formed on the surface.
  5. Ladle the hot jam into sterilized jars, leaving ½ inch headspace.
  6. Wipe the rims of the jars clean, then seal with lids and rings.
  7. Process in a boiling water bath for 10 minutes (optional, for improved shelf life in the refrigerator).
  8. Cool completely. Check seals. Store in the refrigerator for up to 3 weeks or freeze for longer storage.
