Sweet and spicy, this Pumpkin Ginger Jam is another fall favorite of mine. I buy kilos of fresh pumpkin from the local grocer and love experimenting with all sorts of recipes varying from different pies to jams and jellies.
An easy one hour cook of pumpkin chunks with fresh ginger, white sugar and some lemon, to enhance the flavors of the jam making it unique and tasty.
To make Pumpkin Ginger Jam, you will need the following ingredients:
In a saucepan, stir the pumpkin and sugar together until coated. Cover with the lid and set aside for 8 hours to overnight.
In a food processor, blend the unpeeled lemon wedges until smooth and puréed.
In a saucepan over high heat, combine sweetened pumpkin with lemon purée and ginger and bring to a boil. Cook, stirring often, for about 30 minutes, until pumpkin is translucent but holds shape.
Mash mixture to a desired jam consistency.
In a large pot of boiling water, place the jars and lids and boil for 5 minutes. Once sterilized, fill hot jars with pumpkin jam and seal with lids.
Allow to cool before refrigerating. Use within a month.
