How To Make saucy salsa jam
-
1Sterilize jars and prepare lids/rings/seals.
-
2Combine tomatoes, onions, tomato sauce and jalapeño peppers in a large pot. Bring to a boil over medium heat. Reduce heat and summer 5 minutes. Stir so it doesn't stick.
-
3Add lemon or lime juice, zest, hot pepper sauce and gradually stir in sugar. Continue cooking and stirring occasionally over medium-low heat until sugar is completely dissolved.
-
4Increase temperature to medium-high and bring mixture to a boil. Keep stirring and add the pectin. Keep boiling and stirring for 2-3 minutes. Remove from heat.
-
5Cool jam 5 minutes and then ladle into prepared jars. Leave a small headspace. Wipe jars clean, put on lids/rings/seals and process in water bath for 10 minutes (longer if bigger jars).
-
6This makes a soft-set jam. If you don't like spicy, omit the jalapeño and substitute one red pepper, chopped finely.
