Rhubarbjamwithfruit Recipes

Steps:

• In a large saucepan or stockpot, stir together the fresh rhubarb and sugar. Cover, and let stand overnight.
• Bring the rhubarb and sugar to a boil over medium heat. Boil, stirring constantly, for 12 minutes on low heat. Remove from heat, and stir in dry gelatin mix. Transfer to sterile jars, and refrigerate.

Steps:

• In a large saucepan mix together the rhubarb, apples, sugar, water and cinnamon. Bring to a boil, then cook over medium heat for 20 minutes or until the fruit is soft. Stir in the pectin and boil for 5 minutes.
• Ladle into sterile jars, wipe rims with a clean cloth or paper towel, and seal with new lids. Process in a bath of simmering water for at least 10 minutes, or as recommended by your local extension if you are at a high altitude. Store unopened jars in a cool dark place. Refrigerate jam after opening.

Steps:

• In a saucepan, combine the rhubarb, sugar, orange zest, orange juice and water. Bring to a boil, then cook over medium-low heat for 45 minutes, stirring occasionally, or until thick. It will thicken more as it cools.
• Ladle into hot sterile jars, and seal with lids and rings. Store opened jars in the refrigerator.

Steps:

• In a large bowl, add the rhubarb and sugar; stir to coat evenly.
• Cover the bowl, and place it in the refrigerator overnight.
• The next morning, place the rhubarb mixture in a large kettle, and bring the mixture to a boil over medium heat.
• Lower the heat just abit, and gently boil for 15 minutes (stirring constantly).
• Add the (undrained) crushed pineapple, the chopped maraschino cherries; cook for an additional 5 minutes.
• Turn off stove, then add the dry gelatin powder to the kettle; mix well.
• Transfer the jam to the sterilized glass jars, and cover with the lids.
• Cool the jam to room temperature, before storing it in the refrigerator or freezer.

Steps:

• Toss the rhubarb, strawberries, sugar, lemon zest and juice and 3/4 teaspoon salt in a large saucepan to combine, then mash slightly to release some of the berry juice. Set aside for 10 minutes to allow the mixture to macerate and the sugar to dissolve. Meanwhile, place a small plate in the freezer to chill; this will be used to test the doneness of the jam.
• Place the saucepan over medium-high heat. (See Cook's Note for flavor additions.) Bring the mixture to a boil and then reduce the heat to medium low, stirring frequently. Continue to cook until the jam becomes thick and syrupy, about 1 1/2 hours. To test doneness, place a small amount of the jam onto the chilled plate and freeze for 2 minutes. Drag your finger or spoon through the jam. If the jam holds its shape and thickness, remove from the heat. If it's runny, continue to cook and test again in 5-minute increments. Once the jam has reached the right consistency, transfer to jars and cool completely before storing, covered tightly. Jam will keep in the refrigerator for up to 6 months.

Steps:

• Bring rhubarb, sugar, and 1/4 teaspoon salt to a boil in a large pot, stirring often. Cook, stirring often, until bubbles slow, foam subsides, fruit rises to the top, and jam sticks to a wooden or metal spoon when lifted from mixture, about 10 minutes. Stir in lemon juice to taste. Let cool for 1 hour. Refrigerate overnight.

Steps:

• wash out your jars, lids and rings. put jars into canning kettle and bring to a boil. place rings and lids in a bowl of hot water.
• place rhubarb and water in a large saucepan and bring to a boil over high heat.
• reduce heat to medium, cover and cook until rhubarb is tender - 2 to 3 minutes.
• add dry pectin slowly, stirring as you do so.
• turn heat back up to high, mixture should be still boiling. If not wait till it reaches a full rolling boil before adding sugar.
• pour sugar slowly into boiling rhubarb (a second pair of hands is useful for this step!), stirring as you go.
• Keep stirring to prevent sticking and burning, until mixture returns to a full boil. Continue to stir for another minute of rolling boil.
• turn off heat, remove pan. skim off any foam.
• add rosewater.
• pour jam into processed jars, putting on lids and rings, tightening to finger tight.
• process in water bath for 10 minutes.
• remove and place on a dry towel to cool for 24 hours. Lids should pop down fairly quickly. Enjoy!

Steps:

• Cut rhubarb on bias so it doesn't become stringy.
• Mix sugar and rhubarb in a heavy pan and cook over low heat (add no water).
• Stir and boil 10 minutes then remove from heat.
• Stir in Jello until dissolved.
• Pour into jars and seal with lids or place open jars into the freezer.

Steps:

• In a large saucepan or stock pot, combine the rhubarb, sugar and pineapple. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Boil for 10 minutes, stirring frequently. Jars can be sterilized at the same time.
• After the rhubarb mixture has boiled for 10 minutes, remove from heat, and stir in strawberry flavored gelatin powder. Transfer to sterile jars, seal with lids, and process for 15 minutes in a boiling water bath. Allow jars to cool in a draft-free area. Refrigerate jars after seal has been broken.

Steps:

• Combine rhubarb, sugar, and pineapple in a 3 qt saucepan.
• Bring to a boil.
• Reduce heat and simmer 15 minutes.
• Remove from heat and stir in jello until dissolved.

Steps:

• Bring boiling water canner, half full with water, to simmer.
• Wash jars and screw bands in hot soapy water; rinse with warm water.
• (I wash the jar lift and funnel at this time also).
• Place lids in separate saucepan, cover with water and simmer.
• (Note place lids back to back so they do not slide together like they are packed, this will make it easy to get out later.When they start to simmer turn off burner. This process softens the rubber, getting the best seal possible.).
• Chop unpeeled rhubarb finely. Place into 4 qt saucepan with water.
• Bring to boil on high heat. Reduce heat to medium, simmer 2 minutes or until rhubarb is tender.
• Measure EXACTLY 4 1/2 cups prepared rhubarb in 6-8 quart saucepan, they mean COOKED HERE.
• (I measured out 4 1/2 cups Rhubarb and found that when you cooked it of course it cooked down, so this is why I changed the ingredient list to 6 1/2 cups).
• Stir in pectin with rhubarb. Cook for 2 minutes at a roiling biol. Add sugar. Add butter to reduce foaming.
• Stirring constantly, bring to full rolling boil (a boil that does not stop when stirring) on high heat. Boil exactly 1 minute at a full rolling boil.
• Skim off foam, with metal spoon.
• Ladle immediately into prepared jars, filling to within 1/8 inch of tops.(I never fill this full, I only fill to shoulder of jar, but this is what Kraft says).
• Wipe jar rims and threads clean.Cover with two piece lids. Screw bands tightly.
• (I keep a bowl ready to spoon the extra jam, into.).
• Place jars in elevated racking canner. Lower into canner.
• Water must cover jars by 1-2 inches (more for higher altitude).
• Add boiling water if necessary (and ONLY BOILING WATER).
• Cover with lid of canner and bring to gentle boil for 10 minutes.
• Remove jars. Place upright on towel and cool completely.
• After jars cool completely check seal by pressing middles of lids with fingers.
• If lid springs back it is not sealed, refrigerate these jars.
• Kraft kitchen tips:.
• After skimming foam add a few drops red food coloring.
• Altitude chart: above 1,000 ft, increase processing time as indicated.
• 1,001 to 3,000 ft Increase processing time by 5 min.,.
• 3,001 to 6,000 ft increase processing time by 10 min.,.
• 6,001 to 8,000 ft increase processing time by 15 min.,.
• 8,001 to 10,000 ft increase processing time by 20 minutes.
• Every once in a while, you may find your jam does not set the way you expected. If your efforts resulted in a runny batch, try our remake directions to improve your jam. If your jam still does not set, you can always use it as a glaze or syrup.
