Kiwifruit Jam

For this recipe, you will need:

• 3 cups sliced kiwifruit
• 1 cup pineapple juice
• 1 packet pectin
• 4 cups sugar
• A large saucepan
• Sterilized jars

Pour the kiwifruit, pineapple juice and pectin in the large saucepan. Start heating the mixture, and slowly add sugar, stirring vigorously, until dissolved.
Bring the kiwifruit jam to a boil: keep stirring carefully and remove the occasional foam with a spoon.
After 5 minutes, turn off the flame and let the jam rest for about 20 minutes.

Pour the kiwi fruit jam into your sterilized jars, leaving about 1/4 inch free, and seal them...done!

A slightly sour variation can be made by adding 2 tablespoons of fresh lemon juice!
