Strawberry Rhubarb Jam
It appears that I have been taking pictures for who knows how long without an SD card in the camera. So the only picture I have of the jam is what it looks like completed in my freezer.
This was a super easy way to make jam. It only has 4 ingredients. I made this with my friend, Jessica. We quadrupled the recipe and split the proceeds.
5 cups rhubarb, sliced into small pieces
3 1/2 cups sugar
1/4 c. juice (I used a tart grape juice made from the vines out back. It was all I had.)
1 small pkg. strawberry Jello
Combine first three ingredients and let sit for about an hour. Bring to a boil and stir while boiling for 12 minutes. Add Jello and then place in freezer containers. Yield: about 5 cups.
We ate this for lunch today. It's super sweet. But who doesn't love Jello? And, my friends, here is another reason to keep Jello in food storage--with a little fruit and a lot of sugar, you get jam. I have a feeling you might be seeing more rhubarb recipes because that is what is growing out back.
