WILD BLUEBERRY JAM

Steps:

• Mash 13 cups whole berries
• Add powdered pectin, lemon juice and cinnamon, stir until dissolved
• Boil berry/pectin mash 5 mins- the kind of boil you can't stir away.
• Add Sugar and stir in to dissolve
• Bring back to boil for another 3 minutes
• test jam for consistency. For this step I keep a tablespoon in a glass of ice water near the stove. spoon out about a half tablespoon of the jam out of the boiling pot, and let it cool on the spoon. Then turn the spoon up on edge. If the jam either sticks to the spoon or falls off in a lump (as you would expect jam to do!), then it's ready. If it runs off like liquid, keep boiling another 1-2 mins and try again.
• Remove from heat and ladle off any foam. The foam won't hurt anything, it just looks more appealing int he jar without it.
• Let stand for 5 mins. This little trick prevents the fruit from floating to the top of the jar, plus it's about the right amount of time to get your jars and lids out of the pot/dishwasher and set them up to fill.
• Fill jars to within 1/4 inch of the top. Be sure wipe the top edge of the jar with a clean cloth to remove any jam or it will prevent proper sealing.
• Add metal sealers and rings and tighten down fully.
• Within 1-2 hours all the seals should 'pop' on the jars. A good way to check is to try and push down the center of the metal sealer lid. If it flexes it's not sealed, if it has no give...you're good!
• Keeps for 1-2 years

BLUEBERRY JAM

Steps:

• Place a wire rack on a rimmed baking sheet. Place several small plates in the freezer to use later to test the consistency of the jam.
• In a large, heavy-bottomed saucepan, combine the blueberries, sugar, lemon juice, and salt. Let stand until the berries start rendering their juice, about 15 minutes.
• Meanwhile, sterilize eight 1/2-pint canning jars and lids in boiling water, following the manufacturer's instructions (or see Boiling-Water Canning, page 279). Remove the jars from the water and place upside down to drain on the prepared rack. Remove the lids from the water and dry with a clean towel. Turn the sterilized jars right side up on the rack, using tongs or a kitchen towel to protect your hands. When they are cool enough to handle, dry them with a clean towel. Set aside.
• Follow the procedure for Raspberry Jam (page 289), including bringing the blueberry mixture to a boil and cooking until the mixture reaches the jelling point, preparing the canner, filling the jars and boiling them gently for 5 minutes, and checking that the seals on the jars are good. When the jam reaches the jelling point (220°F), add the candied ginger and stir to combine. Store the unopened jars of jam at room temperature for up to 1 year. Once the jam is opened, store in the refrigerator for up to 1 month.

• For refrigerator or freezer jam, transfer the mixture to sterilized freezer-safe plastic containers or freezer-safe jars with lids, leaving 1 inch of headroom. Freeze for up to 1 year or refrigerate for up to 1 month.
