Steps:
- Wash the loquats thoroughly and cut off the blossom end, then cut the fruit in half or quarters. Discard the seeds and the sack that they're enclosed in. You'll need 8 cups of prepared loquats.
- Add prepared loquats to a 6-quart Dutch oven. Cover with sugar, and allow to rest for approximately 30 minutes. The resting time allows the loquats to release their juices and liquifies the sugar.
- Stir the lemon juice and cardamom in with the loquats. Slowly bring to a boil, then simmer over low to medium flame, stirring frequently for approximately 35-40 minutes.
- The color of the jam will change from yellow to dark amber. The consistency of the jam will get thicker.
- Use a hand-held immersion blender to blend the jam into the consistency that you desire. However, allow the jam to cool for approximately 30 minutes before doing so to avoid being splattered by the hot liquid. Or leave it chunky, which is how I prefer it.
- Spoon thickened jam into sterilized jam jars, leaving ¼" headspace. Seal lids tightly, then process in boiling water for ten minutes.

LOQUAT JAM
Loquat trees are all over Southern California where I live, yet are often overlooked. The loquats make a wonderfully fragrant jam and are worth harvesting! If you have a loquat tree, wait until the loquats are yellow before picking. Once the jam cooks long enough, the loquats turn a lovely orange-pink color. This is wonderful on buttered toast, but my favorite way to enjoy it is with some salty cheese.

Steps:
- Combine loquats and sugar in a nonreactive saucepan. Let sit at room temperature, stirring occasionally, until loquats macerate and release their juices, about 3 hours.
- Inspect two 8-ounce jars for cracks and rings for rust, discarding any defective ones. Immerse in simmering water until jam is ready. Wash new, unused lids and rings in warm soapy water. Place a couple of small plates in the freezer.
- Bring loquats to a boil over medium heat. Reduce heat and simmer until thickened, 30 to 40 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool.
- Blend fully or partially with an immersion blender, depending on how chunky you prefer your jam to be. Return pureed loquats to the stove and bring to a boil. Stir in lemon juice and remove from heat.
- Test to make sure the jam is set by dropping a small amount of jam onto a frozen plate. Push with your finger; jam is ready when it wrinkles. If it's still runny, bring back to a boil and simmer for an additional 5 minutes, then test again.
- Ladle the hot jam into the sterilized jars and seal. Allow to cool to room temperature and store in the refrigerator.

Steps:
- Remove blossom end of loquat, peel if desired. Remove seeds and cut in half or quarter, depending on size.
- Add lemon juice to loquats and toss. This will help the fruit from browning.
- In a 6 quart pot or Dutch oven, add loquats with lemon juice and sugar.
- Bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring frequently to avoid scorching. Using a potato masher, gently break up fruit halfway through cooking. You can do this off heat to avoid getting splashed.
- Cook for 30 - 40 minutes. Jam will be foamy when it begins to boil, but the foam will begin to subside when jam is almost ready - that's your cue to start watching it closely.
- Place 4 half pint jars in a water bath, along with lids. Bring to a boil, then gently remove hot jars with canning tongs and place on a dish towel until you are ready to process jam. Remove lids from hot water and set aside with jars.
- Ladle jam into sterilized jam jars, leaving 1/4" space. Place lid on jar and tighten band only to "fingertip tight".
- Lower jam into water bath and process for 10 minutes. Remove from water, place on counter to cool.
