Cranana Jam Recipes

Steps:

• Sterilize jars and lids in boiling water for at least 10 minutes. Let simmer while making jam.
• In a large saucepan, combine strawberries, cranberries, pectin, and margarine. Bring to a boil. Stir in sugar, and return to a boil. Cook for 1 minute; remove from heat.
• Quickly fill jars to within 1/2 inch from top. Wipe rims clean, and put on lids. Process in a boiling water bath for 5 minutes.

Steps:

• Combine all the ingredients into a small, non-reactive saucepan.
• Bring to a simmer and reduce by two-thirds or until the mixture has thickened to the consistency of a loose jam. Remember to keep the heat low to prevent the jam from burning.

Steps:

• Juice the lemons. Slice the rinds into paper-thin strips.
• Boil the sugar and water about 10 minutes. Then add the lemon juice and rind, the bananas - carefully mashed - the ginger and a few cloves. Cook this slowly 30 to 45 minutes. Stir it carefully so that it will not scorch. It will become a pale yellow mush and does not need to be tested for proper consistency.
• Take out the lump of ginger and transfer the mixture to clean jelly glasses. Cover jars and process in a boiling water bath 10 minutes or seal with parafin.

Steps:

• In a large saucepan over medium heat combine cranberries and water; simmer for 10 minutes. Stir in mashed banana and sugar. Increase heat to medium-high; boil 1 minute. Stir in pectin and lemon juice.n
• Sterilize the jars and lids in boiling water for at least 5 minutes. Pack the jam 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.n
• 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 a 2 inch space 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.n
