PEAR AND ORANGE JAM WITH WALNUTS

Steps:

• Peel and core about 2 1/2 pouds pears.
• Peel oranges, remove seeds and any loose membrane. (I used "juice" oranges, not navels, for a more intense flavor.).
• Grind or chop pears and oranges very fine.
• Mix well.
• Measure 4 1/2 cups of the mixture into a very large saucepan.
• Add 1/2 cup chopped walnuts.
• Measure sugar and set aside.
• Mix pectin into fruits in saucepan.
• Place over high heat, stirring continually, until the mixture comes to a hard boil.
• Immediately add all the sugar and butter and stir well.
• Bring to a full rolling boil and boil hard 1 minute, stirring constantly.
• Remove from heat and skim off any foam with a metal spoon.
• Stir and skim for 5 minutes to cool slightly and prevent floating fruit.
• Ladle quickly into glass jars, wipe rims and apply lids & rings.
• Process in a water-bath canner for 10 minutes for half-pints, 15 minutes for pints.
• Remove from canner and place jars on a clean towel to cool.

ORANGE PEAR JAM

Steps:

• 1. Gather you items to start your jam.
• 2. In a Dutch oven or large kettle, combine the sugar, pears drained pineapple and lemon juice.
• 3. Bring to a full rolling boil over high heat, stirring constantly. Reduce heat; simmer for 15 minutes, stirring frequently. I used a potato masher in the pan on the pears to get the texture I desired.
• 4. Remove from the heat; stir in gelatin until dissolved.
• 5. (Pour into jars or containers; cool to room temperature, about 1 hour. Cover and let stand overnight or until set, but not longer than 24 hours. Refrigerate for up to 3 weeks.) This is how I processed: Or you can give the jars a 15 minute water bath and then set the jars on the counter overnight. Mine jars took awhile to seal. I think it was about 2 hours till I heard the last jar pop/seal. I also did see the jam set up well till the next evening and then it was at a perfect thickness.
