TART RED CHERRY JAM (LESS SUGAR)
This is my version of the Sure-Jell recipe that comes in that pink box of pectin. I've always found their directions a bit confusing, so I decided to do my own step-by-step directions. If you follow the instructions exactly, you'll have several ruby red jars of sweet and tart deliciousness to enjoy throughout the year, or to give as sweet gifts from your kitchen. Please note that prep time is approximate.

Steps:
- Start early in the day (I usually start right after breakfast.) Gather ingredients and equipment. Wash jars, lids and rings. Fill canning pot (with rack inserted,) with water to 2 inches below the top (typically should be the first ring on pot.) Place on large burner of stove (no heat yet.)
- Place jars, open end up, in large stockpot (not canner;) fill jars and stockpot with water. Cover pot with lid. Place on stove (no heat yet.) (See **NOTE.)
- **NOTE: You may sterilize jars in dishwasher that has a sterilize option, just be sure that they are scalding hot when you fill them. Also, some folks sterilize their jars in the canner. I don't because I can never get that white mineral (lime) residue off of the inside of the canner. (Everyone has their own way of doing things, so if you do things differently, and it works for you, go for it!)
- Place washed lids in small pan filled with water; place on small burner of stove (no heat yet.)
- Set up remainder of equipment by placing one unfolded dish towel on a counter or table away from drafts. Place the other dish towel, unfolded, on counter nearest stove. On the towel, place jar lifter, lid lifter or tongs, jar funnel, rings, long handled spoon, soup ladle and clean, damp dish cloth ( keep dish cloth away from area of towel where jars will sit while filling because a cold wet spot could cause a jar to break.)
- Wash cherries; place in one of the medium/large bowls. Place bowl on comfortable work surface along with remaining bowl and garbage bowl.
- Remove stems and pit the cherries. For right-handed folks, place empty bowl to the left. Pick up a cherry, remove stem and discard; squeeze cherry between left forefinger and thumb, over the empty bowl; remove pit with right hand; drop cherry in empty bowl; discard pit. Repeat until half of the cherries are pitted.
- Time to turn the heat on under the canner and the stockpot with the jars. Set heat to high. Keep an eye on them. When the pot with the jars comes to a full boil (it will usually take at least 20 minutes to come to a boil,) set timer for 10 minutes. Jars must be boiled for at least 10 minutes, then kept at a simmer until ready to fill with the jam. It will take quite a bit longer for the canner to come to a boil (be sure to have the lid on the canner.)
- While waiting for the pots to boil, continue pitting the cherries.
- When the timer goes off and the jars have boiled for 10 minutes, reduce heat to a simmer. Now turn heat on high under the small pan of water with the lids; when the water comes to a boil, lower heat to medium-low/low; allow lids to barely simmer until ready to place on filled jars.
- When canner comes to a full boil, lower heat very slightly to avoid too much evaporation and lowering of water depth in canner. Boiling water may be added to the canner if it becomes too low. Filled and sealed jars must be covered by at least one to two inches while processing.
- When cherries are all pitted, add to bowl of a food processor fitted with an S-blade (or a blender.) Pulse until finely chopped. You may need to do this in 2 or 3 batches.
- Pour the chopped cherries into a bowl. Use a "dry measure" cup to measure 5 cups into the dutch oven.
- Measure 3 level cups sugar into a medium bowl. From that bowl of sugar, measure out a level 1/4 cup of sugar and pour into a small bowl or cup. Add 1 package of Sure-Jell pectin for lower or no sugar recipes. Use a small spoon to mix well.
- Add the small cup of sugar mixed with the pectin to the cherries in the dutch oven. Stir until well combined. Add 1/2 teaspoon butter.
- Place bowl with remaining 2 3/4 cups sugar on counter within an arm's length of the stove. Make sure that dish cloth is still damp, but not dripping wet, and that all utensils are in place. It's showtime!
- Place pot of cherries over high heat. Stirring constantly, bring to a full rolling boil that can't be stirred down. Immediately add sugar, continuing to stir constantly; bring back to full rolling boil that can't be stirred down. Set timer for one minute.
- After boiling one minute, remove from heat. Use jar lifter to immediately remove (and drain) one jar. Set jar on dish cloth next to stove. Place funnel on jar. Ladle jam into jar, to 1/4 inch of rim. Remove funnel; place top side down on towel. Wipe rim of jar with damp cloth to remove any jam and ensure a proper seal.
- Use lid lifter or tongs to remove a lid from the small pan; place lid on filled jar; place ring on jar and tighten. Work quickly to continue filling jars before jam cools too much.
- Use potholder to remove lid from boiling canner; use jar lifter or tongs to carefully lift rack. Use jar lifter to place filled jars on rack. Carefully lower rack to bottom of the canner. Replace lid. When it begins to boil, set timer for 10 minutes.
- After jars have processed 10 minutes, shut heat off and carefully lift rack. With a dry pot holder in one hand, lift jar and place on the pot holder in your hand and move to the dish towel away from drafts. Repeat with remaining jars, leaving a good space between jars. Jars will begin to make a popping sound as they seal. Let sit, undisturbed, for 24 hours, then gently press on each lid to check for a good seal. If the lid "gives," the seal is no good and the jar must be refrigerated.
- Label jars, or use a permanent marker to write name of jam and date on lid. Store jars in a cool dark space, if possible. Refrigerate after opening.

Steps:
- PREPARE JAR: Wash one half-pint jar and screw band in hot soapy water; rinse with warm water. Pour boiling water over one flat lid in saucepan off the heat. Let stand in hot water until ready to use. Drain well before filling.
- PREPARE PECTIN MIXTURE: Gradually add pectin to water in small (1-qt.) saucepan, stirring constantly. Bring to boil on medium heat; boil 2 min., stirring constantly. Remove from heat.
- PREPARE A TRIAL BATCH: Measure jam or jelly, sugar and 1 Tbsp. of the pectin mixture into small (1-qt.) saucepan. Bring mixture to full rolling boil (a boil that doesn't stop bubbling when stirred) on high heat, stirring constantly. Boil 30 sec.; stirring constantly. Remove from heat. Skim off any foam with metal spoon. Immediately pour into sterilized jar. Cover and let stand up to 24 hours to check set of jam or jelly. Meanwhile, store remaining pectin mixture in refrigerator. Store jar of jam or jelly from trial batch in refrigerator.
- PREPARE REMAINDER OF BATCH: If Trial Batch sets satisfactorily, prepare remainder of batch in 6- to 8-qt. stockpot, remaking no more than 8 cups of jam or jelly at one time and using same directions as for Trial Batch with the above-listed measures of sugar and pectin mixture for each 1 cup of jam or jelly. Ladle into sterilized jars, filling to within 1/4 inch of tops. Wipe jar rims and threads. Cover with two-piece lids. Screw bands tightly.
- PROCESS JARS: Bring boiling-water canner, half full with water, to simmer. Place jars on elevated rack in canner. Lower rack into canner. (Water must cover jars by 1 to 2 inches. Add boiling water, if necessary.) Cover; bring water to gentle boil. Process 5 min. for jelly; 10 min. for jam. Remove jars and place upright on towel to cool completely. After jars cool, check seals by pressing middle of lids with finger. (If lid springs back, lid is not sealed and refrigeration is necessary.) Discard any leftover pectin mixture.

RED SOUR CHERRY JELLY
For Dwight. My neighbor has a red sour cherry tree so I froze several packs in my freezer. I'll try this myself. I made a cobbler when they were fresh but now they are frozen. They should be fine to make jelly. I ate them off the tree when they were ripe. We'll see how this works out. If this looks familiar let me know.

- 1. Wash, stem and mash cherries without crushing them. Add 1/2 cup of water. Heat to boiling; cover and simmer 10 minutes. Strain cherries through a cheese cloth. tie cheese cloth to handle on kitchen sink securely with a big plastic bowl under it.Let the bag drip all night. Don't squeeze cherries it will make juice too cloudy. There should be 3.5 cups of juice.
- 2. Use 2 cups of sugar to 1 cup of juice in a large stainless steel pot. I use my big pressure cooker. Stir well and heat quickly to a rolling boil for 1 minute, add sure jell; stir well and let it come to another rolling bowl for 1 minute. Take off eye and quickly pour into hot, sterilized pint glass jars,.Add thin layer of paraffin on top of jelly. Place Lids and rings on sterilized jars, tight enough to secure.
