I tried to make nectarine jam. I sterilized the lids, rings, and jars.



















Rings and lids.




















Jars.

I dipped the nectarines into boiling water, then cold water. The skins slid off and then sliced up the nectarines. I cooked them with sugar, pectin, and lemon juice. As it cooked down the nectarines gave off a lot of juice. The pectin is supposed to make the mixture into jam.

Unfortunately, the jam didn't set up like it should, it is pretty runny.
























Nectarine jam-syrup.

Not sure why it didn't work, I think I will try with less sugar.
