PEACH MELBA JAM (PEACHES & RASPBERRIES) RECIPE - (4.3/5)

Steps:

• Note: I use the Ball Automatic Jam & Jelly Maker and the Ball Fresh Tech Auto Canner, because I love small batch canning, and the convenience of pushing a few buttons and letting technology do all the work. However, this recipe can still be made the more traditional way using a pot, stirrer and a stove. You can also use the traditional water bath technique to preserve the jam; with the Fresh Tech Autocanner, I use a lot less water and it's fully automated. On with the directions: Prepare the fruit. If using the Automatic Jam & Jelly Maker, evenly spread the pectin, then add the fruit. Add the butter. Turn the Automatic Jam & Jelly Maker on by pressing jam and OK. After four minutes, it will beep to add the sugar, slowly and evenly. Add the fresh lemon juice. (Otherwise combine everything, bring to a rapid boil until thick. Test with a frozen metal spoon to check thickness.) When the Automatic Jam & Jelly Maker beeps, carefully remove the stirrer and pour into prepared canning jars. For the Fresh Tech Auto Canner: Place the jars and press PRE-HEAT and then START. Once the Fresh Tech Auto Canner beeps, remove each jar to be filled with jam. Add a lid and band, and tighten (but don't over tighten). Place into the Fresh Tech Auto Canner. Press JAMS & JELLIES, then press Recipe 1. Otherwise, use the traditional water canning method. Allow to cool for at least 12 hours and store in a cool place.

PEACH MELBA JAM

Steps:

• The night before you make your jam, layer the berries, peaches and sugar in a very large bowl. Cover and set aside at room temperature.
• The next morning, give everything a good stir and set aside again until you're ready to start cooking. Put a small saucer in the freezer.
• Tip the raspberries and peaches, scraping out all the juices and any undissolved sugar, into a preserving pan (or use a large, wide-based pan - the wider and more open the pan, the faster the jam will be ready without the fruit cooking to mush). Stir in the lemon juice and cook over a very low heat until any remaining sugar is dissolved.
• Bring the mixture to the boil, then simmer for 5 mins. Turn off the heat and spoon a little of the hot jam onto the chilled saucer. Once cooled, push the jam with your finger - if it wrinkles a little, it has reached setting point. If it's still too runny to wrinkle, return the pan to the heat and boil in 2-min stages, removing the pan from the heat each time you repeat the saucer test, until ready.
• Skim off any scum, then stir in the butter, if using, to dissolve any remaining scum. Leave for 15 mins, then ladle into sterilised jars (see below). Will keep for up to 6 months in a cool, dark place.
