Ingredients
-
5 cups peeled, shredded zucchini
-
5 cups white sugar
-
3 tablespoons lemon juice
-
2 (3 ounce) packages strawberry-flavored Jell-O
Directions
-
Inspect six half-pint jars for cracks and rings for rust, discarding any defective ones. Immerse in simmering water until jam is ready. Wash new, unused lids and rings in warm soapy water.
-
Stir zucchini and sugar together in a large pot over medium heat until sugar has dissolved and mixture begins to boil, about 10 minutes. Stir in lemon juice and gelatin; continue simmering for 5 more minutes, stirring constantly.
-
Ladle jam into hot, sterilized jars, filling to within 1/4 inch of the top. Run a clean knife or thin spatula around the insides of the jars to remove any air bubbles. Wipe the rims with a moist paper towel to remove any residue. Top with lids and screw rings on tightly.
-
Place a rack in the bottom of a large stockpot and fill halfway with water. Bring to a boil and lower jars 2 inches apart into the boiling water using a holder. Pour in more boiling water to cover jars by at least 2 inches. Bring to a rolling boil, cover, and process for 10 minutes.
-
Remove the jars from the stockpot and let cool, several inches apart, to room temperature, 4 hours or longer. Press the center of each lid with a finger to ensure the lid does not move up or down. Remove the rings for storage and store in a cool, dark area. Refrigerate any jars that do not seal.
Recipe Tip
You can make any flavor of jam by changing the flavor of Jello. Try peach, blueberry, blackberry, etc.
