Strawberry-Rhubarb Jam Recipe

Rating 5

I consider this sweet flavorful jam summer in a jar! The fruity concoction is simply scrumptious spread on toast, English muffins and more. —Peggy Fleming, East Troy, Wisconsin

Strawberry-Rhubarb Jam Recipe
  • Prep: 10 min. Process: 5 min.
  • Yield: 48 Servings
10 5 15

Ingredients

  • 4 cups fresh strawberries, crushed
  • 2 cups chopped fresh rhubarb
  • 1/4 cup bottled lemon juice
  • 1 package (1-3/4 ounces) powdered fruit pectin
  • 5-1/2 cups sugar

Directions

  • In a Dutch oven, combine the strawberries, rhubarb and lemon juice; stir in pectin. Bring to a full rolling boil, stirring constantly. Stir in sugar; return to a full rolling boil. Boil for 1 minute, stirring constantly.
  • Remove from the heat; skim off foam. Carefully ladle hot mixture into hot sterilized pint jars, leaving 1/4-in. headspace. Wipe rims and adjust lids. Process for 5 minutes in a boiling-water canner. Yield: about 6 pints.

    Editor's Note: When I start a canning recipe the very first thing I do is fill the canner with water and start heating the water. It takes quite a while for that large amount of water to come to a boil.

Excellent! I didn't process though; just put in the freezer.

Made two batches of this jam! After tasting the first one couldn't pass up making another. Prefer this over just strawberry, sets up real nice.

My family loves this Jam. They prefer it to strawberry, even the kids!

I have made this twice, and it turned out great both times. I used frozen rhubarb the second time, with good results. This is really worth the effort!
