| In a bowl, add sugar to fruit and let
stand 10 minutes, until sugar is mostly dissolved. Mix water and pectin in a small saucepan and bring to a boil. Boil for one minute, stirring constantly. Remove from heat and stir the pectin into the fruit; stir for three minutes. Ladle into sterilized jars, leaving 1/2 inch headroom. Seal with sterilized lids. Let stand at room temperature until jam is set (about one day), then freeze. |
