Jalapeno Kiwi Jam Recipes

Steps:

• In a large saucepan, combine 3 cups mashed kiwi, pineapple juice, lemon juice and apples. Bring to a boil and then add the sugar; stir to dissolve, reduce heat and simmer for 30 minutes.
• 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.
• 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.

Steps:

• Prepare kiwi and peppers. I dice the kiwi and then mash it lightly with a potato masher and I use the mini workbowl of my food processor to mince the peppers - you can choose whether or not to seed them!
• Combine kiwi, peppers, sugar, lemon juice and vinegar in a large stockpot, mix well and let sit, covered for 30 minutes.
• Heat the mixture over low heat, stirring constantly until all of the sugar is dissolved.
• Add butter, increase the heat to medium high and bring to a rolling boil. Boil hard for 6 minutes, stirring frequently.
• Add the pectin all at once and stir to dissolve. Return to a full rolling boil and boil hard for 1 minute, stirring constantly.
• Remove from heat and stir constantly for 3 minutes to help redistribute the fruit evenly in the jam and prevent it from floating to the top of the finished product.
• Ladle jam into hot jars, leaving 1/4 inch headspace. Process jars for 10 minutes in a boiling water bath - adjusting processing time for altitude.

Steps:

• Combine kiwi, pectin and pineapple juice in a large saucepan.
• Bring to a boil stirring constantly.

Steps:

• Peel the kiwi fruit, cut into quarters and then chop roughly.
• In a medium saucepan, heat the kiwi fruit and sugar over a low heat.
• Simmer gently until the sugar dissolves stirring occasionally. Add the lime juice and zest.
• Once the sugar has dissolved turn the heat up and bring the mixture to a rapid boil for about 10 minutes. Stir frequently and be sure not to let the mixture burn.
• Spoon jam into a sterilized, air-tight jar and refrigerate. The jam can be kept up to a month.
• Spread jam on hot buttered toast and serve with a cup of tea.
