Subj : St. Henry 14 To : All From : Dave Drum Date : Mon Jul 12 2021 20:17:52 MMMMM----- Recipe via Meal-Master (tm) v8.06 Title: Diana Henry's Chile Jam Categories: Vegetables, Chilies, Condiments, Citrus Yield: 4 Servings 8 lg Red bell peppers; halved, - seeded, chopped 8 md Red chillies; stemmed, - chopped 1 1/4 kg Granulated sugar 600 ml White wine vinegar Juice of 1 lemon 350 ml Liquid pectin Put all the ingredients, except for the lemon juice and pectin, into a large saucepan. Bring to a boil then reduce the heat and simmer until the peppers are really tender. Leave to cool a little, then whizz in a food processor (you want a chunky mixture rather than a smooth one). Put a small saucer into your freezer. Put the chile mixture back into the rinsed-out pan with the lemon juice and bring to a boil. Boil for one minute. Pull the pan off the heat, stir in the pectin, then gradually bring to the boil again. Use a jam thermometer to test for the setting point (104ºC/220ºF for jam). I also find the ‘wrinkle’ test reliable: put a drop of jam on to the freezer-cold saucer, return it to the freezer for a couple of minutes then take it out again. Push the jam gently with your finger. If the surface wrinkles it has reached setting point. If it’s still quite liquid, it needs to be returned to the heat and boiled for a few minutes before testing again. Skim any scum off the surface, ladle into hot, sterilised jars and seal. It will thicken as it cools but has a very soft set, more like a sauce. By Diana Henry, cookery journalist of the year RECIPE FROM: https://www.telegraph.co.uk Uncle Dirty Dave's Archives MMMMM ....
