Raspberry Chipotle Jam
Raspberries and chipotles provide the perfect balance of sweet and spicy in this versatile jam.
I’ve been dabbling in canning ever since I was contacted by Ball to participate in their Can it Forward campaign last summer. It’s been a lot of fun experimenting with new flavors. I’m still pretty new to canning and had an itch to make some jam the other day.
I browsed the recipes on www.freshpreserving.com to find something to make. I was intrigued at the idea of the sweet and spicy combination of raspberries and chipotles and decided to give it a shot.
Since my chipotles had been frozen in their sauce, I used 3 chipotles instead of the 2 called for in the recipe. I’m glad I did this. The resulting jam was sweet with a subtle heat that the chipotles bring to the party.
Hubby and I enjoyed eating this with some cheese and crackers right after I made it. I’m thinking it would make an amazing grilled cheese sandwich. I might try slathering some on some chicken too. Any other ideas on how I can use this stuff?

Raspberry Chipotle Jam
Raspberries and chipotles provide the perfect balance of sweet and spicy in this versatile jam.
Yield: Four 8-oz jars
Prep Time: 4 minutes
Cook Time: 21 minutes
Total Time: 25 minutes
Ingredients:
2 2/3 cups crushed raspberries (about four 6-oz containers)
3 chipotle peppers in adobo sauce, chopped
1 Tbsp adobo sauce
3 Tbsp Ball® RealFruit® Classic Pectin
1/2 tsp butter
3 1/3 cups sugar
Directions:
Crush raspberries with a potato masher. Combine with chipotles and sauce.
If using a jam maker, sprinkle pectin over bottom of pot with the stirrer attached. Add raspberries and chipotles over pectin. Add butter to reduce foaming. Press the JAM button, then ENTER.
When the machine beeps after 4 minutes, gradually add the sugar. Place the lid on the pot.
Place 4 sterilized jars in a stock pot set to high heat. Once the water starts to boil, reduce to a simmer.
When the Jam maker beeps again, the jam is done. Using a pot holder, remove the stirrer and skim any foam.
Remove hot jars from water and ladle the jam in to the jars. Allow jars to come to room temperature before storing in the fridge or freezer.

White water rafting and Canadian kayaking will have you navigating powerful rivers in some of the most beautiful locations on earth. Deep, river-carved gorges that are teeming with wildlife…spectacular scenery…and man or women against nature, that’s what memories are made of. Explore the underwater sights while scuba diving in Canada. The Pacific Ocean in the west and the Atlantic Ocean in the east offer a wide variety of marine life and the Great Lakes are an ideal location for wreck diving. .

Here’s my recipe and it’s a winner: cut apples in chunks, add a little water and a little regular sugar or splenda. But then add a handful or two of cinnamon red hots!!!!!. Bring the pot to a low simmer, stirring occasionally, but stop just before apples turn to much, in other words, they’re barely done. Remove from heat and serve. They really are delicious, hot or cold. The apple chunks are delightful. Try it and hope you also like it.
