Huckleberry Jam

8 cups Huckleberries
11 cups sugar
1 lemon
2 boxes pectin
1/2 cup water

In large bowl add whole berries or you can pulse them in your food processor for a few seconds. Add sugar and stir until well combined. Set aside.

Slowly add water and powdered pectin to large pan until dissolved. Add berries and sugar, cook berries over medium heat, stirring constantly. If you decided to add whole berries, you can mash a few of them with a potato masher.

When mixture comes to a boil, add the juice of one lemon. Stir until well combined. Turn off heat and process in clean sterilized jars. I processed our jam for 10 minutes in water bath.

If you have sweet Huckleberries, I would recommend using half sugar and half Huckleberries and reducing the pectin to one box….and only 1/2 of the lemon.

The jam isn’t bad and it’s gorgeous, it just doesn’t have the WOW factor that I was looking for.

NOTE:  I would guess this gal used evergreen huckleberries rather than wild huckleberries!

Ilse’s Huck Jam

6 c. crushed huckleberries

1 package (2oz.) powdered pectin

8 c. sugar

Prepare 9 – 1/2 pint sized canning jars by washing in dish washer. It is important that these jars still be HOT when it is time to fill them, so timing is essential. Wash & drain berries. Put through food processor or whirl in a blender until berries are crushed. (NOT pulverized as it’s nice to have a little thickness due to bits of berry!) Measure 6 cups of fruit into large (6 qt.) pot. Stir in the pectin and bring to a slow boil, stirring constantly. Add the 8 cups of sugar and continue to stir bringing mixture to a full, rolling boil. Let the fruit boil exactly 2 minutes. Remove from heat and skim off foam. (We like to eat the foam plain after it cools off.) Pour the jam into clean, warm jars to about 1/4 inch below rim. Pop as many air bubbles on the top of the filled jar as you can and wipe the rims with a clean cloth before sealing lids on tightly. We use rubber jar holders for turning lids tight. Place jars upside down on clean towel for 10 minutes. In the meantime follow the instructions for your canning pot so your water is boiling by the time the filled jars have rested 10 minutes. Set jars in boiling water bath so all are covered with water and then cover with pot lid. Let boil for 20 minutes. Remove jars. Gently wipe dry. Tighten lids again then set on clean towels covering your counter top. Now just sit back and listen for the gentle “plink” that each jar will make as it cools and it becomes vacuum sealed. What a lovely sound!
