4. Tangerine Ginger Jam
Isn’t your mouth watering just reading those words? Although making jam is a bit more involved than some other condiments, you will love this so much you won’t mind taking the few extra minutes. You can keep this in the refrigerator and although it won’t last as long as canned jam, it’s still super tasty.
Ingredients:
- 16 Organic tangerines, peeled and seeded
- 6 Cups of organic tangerine juice
- 6 Cups of sugar
- Juice from a 2 inch piece of organic ginger
- 2 Teaspoons of real vanilla
- 1 Package of Pomona pectin
Instructions:
- Finely chop the tangerines ( a food processor will make this much faster.)
- Prepare the calcium water from the pectin package. Put ½ teaspoon of calcium powder in ½ a cup of water in a small jar with a lid. Shake well, and then set aside.
- Put the chopped tangerines, juice, ginger juice, and 2 tablespoons of the calcium water into a large stock pot.
- Put the sugar in a separate bowl. Mix in 3 tablespoons of the pectin.
- Bring the juices together with the tangerines to boil, meanwhile stir frequently.
- Put the sugar mixture in and stir vigorously for a few minutes to dissolve the pectin.
- Return the pot to a boil, stir the mixture a few times, then remove from heat.
- Stir in the vanilla.
- You can put this mixture through the canning process, or simply place it in jars and keep it in the fridge. This should keep about 6 to 8 months in the fridge, longer if you can this mixture.
