How to cook deliciously - Ginger-Peach Jam
1. Stage
Bring peaches, ginger, and pectin to a boil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Stir in sugar and butter; cook and stir until the sugar is dissolved. Return to a boil, stirring constantly for 1 minute more. Remove from the heat, and skim off any foam with a spoon.
2. Stage
Sterilize the jars and lids in boiling water for at least 5 minutes. Pack peach mixture into the hot, sterilized jars, filling the jars to within 1/4 inch of the top. Run a knife or a thin spatula around the insides of the jars after they have been filled to remove any air bubbles. Wipe the rims of the jars with a moist paper towel to remove any food residue. Top with lids and screw on rings.
3. Stage
Place a rack in the bottom of a large stockpot and fill halfway with water. Bring to a boil over high heat, then carefully lower the jars into the pot using a holder. Leave 2 inches between the jars. Pour in more boiling water if necessary until the water level is at least 1 inch above the tops of the jars. Bring the water to a full boil, cover the pot, and process for 10 minutes.
4. Stage
Remove the jars from the stockpot and place on a cloth-covered or wood surface, several inches apart, until cool.
5. Stage
Once cool, press the top of each lid with a finger, ensuring that the seal is tight (lid does not move up or down at all). Store in a cool, dark area.
