Spiced Mandarin Orange Jam from Canned Oranges
1 (15oz) can mandarin oranges, drained very well, approx 1 C
1 Tblsp + 1 1/4 tsp pectin
2 tsp fresh lemon juice
zest of 1/4 lemon
1/8 tsp cinnamon
very light shake of ground cloves
1 C sugar-this is sweet folks!
- Add everything except sugar to 3 quart pot, bring to boil stirring and breaking up the oranges. Note: I let my oranges sit in a mesh colander for a couple hours to drain.
- Add sugar, bring to a rolling boil, boil 1 minute stirring constantly.
- Pour into sterilized jars, cover, cool and store in the fridge.
Eat well and have a happy day:@)
