Rhubarb Blueberry Jam
I swear you are going to love this jam, its the perfect combination.
I inherited a revere ware pot that is perfect for making jam, its old, it has a copper bottom and nothing sticks to it. You can use any pot you want that has a thick bottom to prevent scorching.
7 cups fresh Rhubarb (diced, this breaks down quite a bit so you can do large dice)
4 cups fresh blueberries
4 cups granulated sugar
1 orange (zest)
Juice from the orange
1/2 cup water
While the mixture is cooking, prepare jars according to manufactures directions. I wash min with soap and water. Boil them for a couple minutes, then keep the hot in a 200 degree oven along with the lids.
Place all ingredients into the pot and bring to boil. Lower heat but keep at a good simmer. Simmer for 45 min. The mixture will reduce and become thick, so stir it ever few min. Should be Pretty thick at this point. Ladle into prepared hot jars, wipe the rims with a damp paper towel, place lids on and hand tighten. process in boiling water bath for 10 min.
