PERSIMMON JAM

Steps:

• Slice persimmons into small chunks and remove stems and seeds.
• Add persimmons and lemon juice to a small saucepan and cook on low for a few minutes until persimmons begin to release their juices. Use a potato masher to help speed the process along.
• Once they've fallen apart, add sugar and cook over medium-low heat until the jam thickens. Test for consistency on a plate in the freezer.
• When the consistency is right, pour into prepared canning jars leaving 1/4 inch headspace. Process in a water bath canner for 10 minutes, and then turn off heat and leave the jars in the canner for an additional 5 minutes. Remove jars to the counter and allow them to cool.
• Check seals, and store any unsealed jars in the refrigerator for immediate use.
