Serve this Old Fashioned Grape Jam on your work or school lunch sandwiches, on top of an oven baked cheesecake or inside some freshly baked scones with double whipped fresh cream.
Using only grapes and sugar and following these few simple steps, you can create your own homemade grape jam condiment, just like grandma used to make!
To make Old Fashioned Grape Jam, you will need the following ingredients:
Seed grapes by squeezing the grape flesh out of the skin. Cook the pulp down but putting the pulp through a fine mesh strainer and then re-combining the filtered pulp with the grape skins.
In a large saucepan, mix the grapes skins, grape pulp and sugar and cook for 10-15 minutes until mixture reaches a gel-like texture. Test the consistency on an ice cold plate or with a candy thermometer.
Once set, divide the jam into prepare canning jars, leaving ¼-inch space, open from the top.
If using immediately, store in the refrigerator to chill.
Place jars in a water bath canner and process for 10 minutes, then turn off the heat and allow the jars to rest in the water for a further 5 minutes.
Remove jars from the water bath and rest for 24-48 hours to set to a complete gel and store in a cool, dry place.

I made this Old Fashioned Grape Jam last week and it turned out superb! Reminds me of my childhood, when my gran would teach me how to make it. So simple and it adds a lovely touch to scones with cream.

Thank you for your question Jane. Our chef used 6 x 8 ounce jars.
I am going to try this recipe this weekend. I'm not clear how many pints are needed if the serving is 6x. Six jars? What size. Thanks for your information!
Making this Old Fashioned Grape Jam was a delightful trip down memory lane. It reminds me of summers spent with my grandma picking grapes. The recipe is so simple, just grapes and sugar, yet the flavor is exceptional. Perfect on scones with fresh cream.
