Say I love you by gifting this luscious decadent jam. Nothing better than chocolate paired with cherries for Valentine's Day.
6 c. frozen or fresh cherries, dark sweet or tart red, coarsely chopped
6 T. pectin
1/4 c. bottled lemon juice
6 c. sugar
2/3 unsweetened cocoa
Ladle hot jam into hot half pint jelly jars, leaving 1/4" headspace. Debubble. Wipe jar rim. Center lid and apply band to fingertip tight.
Process 10 minutes in boiling water or steam canner, adjusting for altitude as follows:
1,001-3,000 ft ~ increase processing time by 5 minutes
3,001-6,000 ft ~ increase processing time by 10 minutes
6,001-8,000 ft ~ increase processing time by 15 minutes
8,001-10,000 ft ~ increase processing time by 20 minutes
Allow jars to rest undisturbed for 12-24 hours. Remove bands, check seals, wash and label jars. Store in a cool dark dry place.

Oh my gosh! I made this today and forgot to 'de-bubble' all of my jars. . . .but the sauce was so delicious......

I made this jam recently. I was way beyond good. I found out that Walmart has these dark sweet cherries, and to make the 6 cups it takes two bags of cherries. I put them in half pint jars, but I had a little left over. The left over was put into a 4 oz. jar which was perfect for just two people. That is if you are not living on that delicious jam. I made it also with the regular pectin (one box of Sure Jell), because my husband does not like the low sugar pectin. This is a chocolate lovers treat!

Hi carol, I’ve made this, but used Pomonas Pectin. It came out thick but we zapped it a few seconds in the microwave and used this on ice cream!

I have made this one before, usually buy cherries cheap in summer and freeze to make jams in the cooler winter months but unfortunately we lost power during a storm and the fruit thawed out, all the fruits I had thawed out, so no jam making for me.

Did it set up more than what you showed us? I’m asking because if it didn’t. I’d add a little more pectin. Thanks!

I’m not sure on that… you’d probably need to add some water if you did and I’m not sure how much

You must use bottled lemon juice

@@carol-thriftychichousewife6231I certainly understand your answer. And yes it's always better to go strictly (for the most part) by the recipe. But I have had this same question before. And according to Pamona Pectin q&a their reply was: "Citric Acid can be substituted - it will adjust the acidity (lower the pH) of the fruit, which is what you want to do. ¼ teaspoon powdered Citric Acid is equivalent to 1 Tablespoon lemon juice. 1 teaspoon powdered Citric Acid is equivalent to ¼ cup lemon juice (4 Tablespoons)." Not meaning to step on any toes with this reply, just sharing what I had previously found out from Pamona.

@@jimjordan5630 I’m aware you can swap citric acid for lemon juice in canning recipes but I have never heard of doing it for jam. And I don’t claim to know everything about canning so if pamona says you can it’s worth trying.

I have it cooling on the counter now and I have to say I am a little disappointed. I love chocolate but cherries are my passion and the chocolate overpowers the cherries.

@carol-thriftychichousewife6231 6 ай бұрын

It could be the cherries. The batch I made was very balanced in flavor but I used red tart cherries instead of black sweet cherries
