CANNING RECIPE! Nectarines with a Dash of Blueberries and Ginger

CANNING RECIPE! Nectarines with a Dash of Blueberries and Ginger

This canning recipe is amazing and can be multiplied so you can save and store all your excess nectarines. They are such a tasty treat during those winter months.

Below are the instructions. PLEASE NOTE - If you are new to canning, make sure you read up on it and follow all safety guidelines to avoid botulism and food poisoning.

If you prefer not to can them, you can omit the lemon juice and store in the fridge for up to 2 weeks.

**I used pint jars.

Ingredients:
10 nectarines
4 cups water
3/4 cup honey
freshly grated ginger (1/4 tsp per jar)
1 tbl lemon juice per each jar
a few blueberries per jar

Instructions:
1. Wash, pit, and quarter the nectarines. Put them in a bowl of water with some lemon juice to keep them from browning.
2. Boil 4 cups water and 3/4 cup honey.
3. Put a few blueberries (it makes the syrup have a beautiful color), 1/4 tsp freshly grated ginger, and 1 tablespoon lemon in each jar.
4. Pack the nectarines in until they are 1/2 inch from the top.
5. Pour hot syrup into each jar leaving at least 1/4 inch head space.
6. Remove bubbles by running a knife along the inside of the jar.
7. Wipe down the rims with a warm paper towel, put the lid on, screw the ring on (only finger tight).
8. Process jars in a water bath canner for 25 minutes (pint jars) or 30 minutes (quart jars). Make sure to adjust for altitude.
9. Turn the heat off and leave the jars in the canner for 5 more minutes.
10. Put jars on a towel on the counter and do not touch for 24 hours.
11. After 24 hours, check that they have sealed. Unscrew the ring so it is very lose on the jar (if it was contaminated, the top will pop off so you know).

Enjoy!
