  5. Once the jam is reduced and thickened and reached a temperate of 220F degrees (use a candy thermometer) remove from heat and ladle jam into sterilized jars.
  6. Wipe rims down with a damp, clean paper towel and place lids on. Screw the band on to just finger tight.
  7. Process jars in a water bath for 10 minutes. Remove from water bath and let cool on a towel lined on the counter. Leave undisturbed for 12 hours before removing bands and storing in a dark place for up to a year.

Notes

To process the jam at altitude, add 5 minutes to every 1000 feet above 3000 feet. Since I live just below 7000 feet, I processed my jars for a total of 25 minutes.
