NANA'S SPICED PEACH JAM

Steps:

• Peel, pit and slice peaches. Chop peaches using a Chop Stir kitchen gadget, then a potato masher. Be sure to aim for small bits of peaches, as opposed to puree.
• Begin heating a large pot on the stove on medium. Add the peaches, then stir in the lemon juice, spices & pectin. Over medium-high heat, bring jam to a hard boil, meaning that it continues to boil quickly even while stirring. This takes around 20 minutes.
• As the jam heats up, measure out your sugar in a separate bowl.
• Prep your jars by washing them in very hot water, letting the water sit in the jars for 2-3 minutes so that the jars themselves warm up. Dry them by overturning them on a clean towel.
• Once jam is brought to a hard boil, add the sugar, all at once, stirring while you pour it in. Continue on medium-high heat until the jam is back to a full, rolling boil. Boil for 5 minutes. Place several paper towels by the pot and move your jars over onto the paper towel.
• Ladle hot jam into jars using a funnel. Leave as little space on top as you can, without overflowing it. Place lid and ring on jar, securing both well. Jars will be very, very hot! THey'll also get a bit messy, which is fine.

• 4. Once mixture has reached a boil that cannot be stirred down, quickly add pectin squeezing entire contents in all at once. Return to a hard boil stirring and mashing constantly for one minute. Remove from heat. Skim foam if necessary.
• 5. Fill hot jars leaving 1/4" headspace. Run a small spatula around the inside of each jar to disperse air bubbles and add additional jam to bring back to 1/4" headspace.
• 6. Carefully and thoroughly wipe the rim of each jar clean with a damp towel to ensure a good seal. Place rings and lids. Tighten lids to "fingertip" tightness. Process in boiling water bath for five minutes.
