Rhubarbstrawberryjam 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:

• Let jars, rims and lids stand in hot water until they are ready to be filled.
• Measure the Strawberries and Rhubarb into a 6-8qt saucepan.
• Stir pectin into fruit.
• Bring to a rolling boil.
• Using a blender wand or hand masher break up the rhubarb.
• Add sugar.
• Return to a full boil and boil 1 minute.
• (It will increase in size.).
• After 1 minute of boiling, remove from heat and immediately ladle into jars leaving space of 1/8" at the top.
• Put rims and seals on jar and tighten as much as possible.
• Invert jars for 5 minutes then turn upright.
• Let sit for 24 hours before serving.

Steps:

• Place rhubarb, strawberries, lemon juice, fruit pectin, and butter into a large kettle over medium heat. (Butter is optional but helps keep jam from getting too foamy). Stir the fruit mixture to help the juice start to form, and add sugar, about 1 cup at a time, stirring constantly until sugar is dissolved and the juice is starting to simmer. Turn up heat to medium-high, bring the mixture to a full rolling boil, and cook and stir for 1 minute. Skim off any foam that forms.
• Sterilize the jars and lids in boiling water for at least 5 minutes. With a jelly funnel and a soup ladle, pack the jam into the hot, sterilized jars, filling the jars to within 1/4 inch of the top. Run a knife or a thin spatula around the insides of the jars after they have been filled to remove any air bubbles. Wipe the rims of the jars with a moist paper towel to remove any food residue. Top with lids, and screw on rings.
• Place a rack in the bottom of a large stockpot and fill halfway with water. Bring to a boil over high heat, then carefully lower the jars into the pot using a holder. Leave a 2 inch space between the jars. Pour in more boiling water if necessary until the water level is at least 1 inch above the tops of the jars. Bring the water to a full boil, cover the pot, and process for 5 minutes.
• Remove the jars from the stockpot and place onto a cloth-covered or wood surface, several inches apart, until cool. To help the jam set, don't move or touch the jars until cooled. Once cool, press the top of each lid with a finger, ensuring that the seal is tight (lid does not move up or down at all). Store in a cool, dark area.

Steps:

• Place the strawberries and rhubarb in a large microwave-able bowl. Sprinkle fruit with sugar and toss evenly. Microwave on high for 10 to 12 minutes.

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:

• Combine rhubarb pieces, sugar and fresh lemon juice in heavy large Dutch oven. Cover and refrigerate until juices form, stirring occasionally, at least 8 hours or overnight.
• Bring rhubarb mixture to simmer over medium heat, stirring until sugar dissolves. Increase heat to high and boil until rhubarb mixture thickens slightly, about 5 minutes. Add raspberries and boil until mixture is thick, stirring occasionally, about 6 minutes longer. Remove jam from heat. Stir in ground cardamom. Cool jam completely. (Jam can be made 1 week ahead. Store in covered container in refrigerator.)

Steps:

• Combine the rhubarb, strawberries and sugar in a heavy 2-quartsaucepan and simmer for 20 minutes.
• until the rhubarb is soft.
• Pour 2/3 of the mixture into a blender with the kirsch; purée and set aside.
• Pour 4 tablespoons cold water into a small saucepan and sprinkle the gelatin over the top.
• Allow to soften for 10 minutes. Heat gently until the gelatin has completely dissolved. Stir into the rhubarb purée.
• Combine the purée with the remaining cooked rhubarb mixture.
• Whip the heavy cream until stiff and fold into the rhubarb mixture. Chill for several hours.
