How to Make Strawberry Rhubarb Jam Liquid Certo

  1. Prepare your jars and lids: Wash jars in hot, soapy water; rinse with warm water. Bring a small amount of water to a boil; place lids in the hot water until ready to use.
  2. Remove stems from 2 1/4 cups crushed strawberries (crush by hand, with a potato masher, or food processor – do not puree).
  3. Chop rhubarb into 1/2 inch pieces. Place in a saucepan with 1/2 cup water. Bring to a boil and cook for 2 minutes, or until softened.
  4. In a large pot, combine crushed strawberries, drained rhubarb, 7 cups sugar, 1/4 cup liquid pectin (such as Certo), and 1/2 tablespoon butter (optional).
  5. Bring to a full rolling boil over high heat, stirring constantly.
  6. Boil hard for exactly 1 minute, stirring constantly.
  7. Remove from heat. Skim off any foam.
  8. Ladle hot jam into prepared jars, leaving 1/8 inch headspace.
  9. Wipe jar rims clean. Place lids on jars and screw on bands tightly.
  10. Process in a boiling water bath for 10 minutes (adjust processing time based on altitude).
  11. Remove jars from canner and let cool completely. You should hear a ‘pop’ sound as the jars seal.
  12. Check seals after cooling. Refrigerate unsealed jars and use within a week.
  13. Store sealed jars in a cool, dark, and dry place for up to one year.
