Mango Jam

Ingredients

  • Two 16oz. bags of frozen mango chunks thawed (or the equivalent amount of peeled fresh mango)
  • One lemon juiced and zested
  • 4 cups sugar
  • Pinch of salt
  • One box of pectin or 3 Tbsp from a larger bag

Instructions

  1. Put the thawed mango chunks, lemon juice, zest, pinch of salt and pectin in large pot.
  2. Cook for until chunks become soft.
  3. Mash with a potato masher so most, not all, of the chunks are smoother.
  4. Get to a rolling boil, stirring constantly and keep it rolling for one minute.
  5. Add all the sugar at once and stir dissolving all lumps.
  6. Continue to stir to prevent burning on bottom
  7. Bring to another rolling boil, stirring, keep at it for one minute.
  8. Take the pot off the stove and ladle into sterilized jars and put on lids.
  9. Process in a water bath for between five and ten minutes, depending on the size of your jars.
