Ingredients
- 1 pound carrots, peeled and grated (about 4 cups)
- 1 orange, juice and finely chopped zest
- 1 lemon, juice and finely chopped zest
- 1 lime, juice and finely chopped zest
- 3 cups sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
Like a marmalade, this sweet jam uses carrots, providing extra dimensions of texture and flavor,
for a fun topping.
Directions
- Have ready 4 half-pint jars with suitable lids, if planning to process in a water bath.
If not, any container(s) totalling 1 quart will do. Remove zest and then juice the fruits. There
should be about 1 cup total juice.
Heat all ingredients together over low heat until sugar
has dissolved, 3 - 4 minutes. Raise heat to medium and cook, stirring often, until thick, about 30
minutes.
Spoon jam into containers. If processing, leave 1/4th inch of headspace in the jars
and process while hot. If refrigerating or freezing, cool to room temperature first.
