INGREDIENTS

  • 1 ½ cups cranberries, fresh or frozen
  • 4 pears
  • 5 cups sugar
  • ½ cup water
  • 1 package powdered pectin
  • ¼ cup sherry (optional)

DIRECTIONS

Place cranberries in a food processor and pulse until they are coarsely chopped. Transfer to a large saucepan. 

Peel and finely chop the pears (hand chop only; a processor turns pears to mush). Add to the cranberries. Stir sugar into the fruit and let stand for 10 minutes. 

Combine the water, pectin, and sherry (optional) in a separate saucepan. Bring to a boil and cook for 1 minute, stirring constantly. 

Stir pecting into the fruit mixture. Bring to a boil and cook for 3 minutes, stirring constantly. Pour jam into sterilized jars and cover tightly. 

Let stand at room temperature until the jam sets, up to 24 hours.
