Blueberries for Fresh Blueberry Pound Cake Recipe

Summer is zipping by, 2015 is actually cruising by in a blur of cooking, cleaning and writing recipes for you. Seriously, though, it’s true. My days are filled with what food is trending, what food you’ll be googling a month from now and cooking accordingly.

I got a welcome surprise of tons and tons of free blueberries from my mom. As good as they are, it’s wrecked havoc on my summer blog schedule. I’m a planner, you see, which means I don’t like surprises.

I have shared several blueberry recipes with you, but couldn’t pass up Blueberry Jalapeno Jam Recipe! Now, you may be intimidated by making jam as I was. Previously, I would not even consider making jelly or jam. This time I had so many blueberries that I couldn’t use them all. Jam was the only solution.

Imagine my surprise to realize how very easy it is to make jams and jellies!!

Don’t like jalapenos or simply want a traditional Blueberry Jam? Omit the jalapenos while leaving everything else the same. Your jam will be fabulous!

Blueberries, lemon, and jalapenos combine and marry together to make an outstanding jam. You just have to taste it to believe it!

    I coincidentally picked 4 cups of huckleberries and after a quick google search for “blueberries and jalapeño jam” I found this. I tweaked it a bit but i think it had to do with my inadequate equipment. Cheap pot on a cheap stove, had to wait a long time and stir a lot to get the consistency right. I also added a tinsie bit more of pectin (don’t know why really) I thought doing this would help it stiffen up faster. In the end it turned out great. Will be shipping some of it out to the in-laws.

    I think it should be very straightforward if you have a nice thick cast iron pot like a LeCrusette or something like that and a nice gas stove with evenly distributed heat.

    This recipe turned out fabulous and set perfectly. I left the seeds in from the jalapeños and it has a very nice kick to it. What can you serve it with besides cream cheese and crackers? Any other suggestions!

      It would be amazing on this grilled cheese!! https://www.callmepmc.com/blackberry-bacon-grilled-cheese/
      I also think it would be a good glaze on ham or a strong fish like salmon.

    Love this recipe! Excellent combination of Sweet & Hot! Only half of the batch set. Any idea why?
    I put the blueberries through a food chopper before cooking and they broke up much better than trying to crush them.
    I sell Jams & Jellies at local farmers markets and always water bath the filled jars for 10 minutes. It gives an added assurance that they are safe for my family & my customers.

    Paula Thank you so much for this recipe. I made it using a combination of jalapeno, red-yellow-orange hot peppers, and habanero. Your recipe was so easy to follow. It came out perfect. Again thank you for sharing. It made 6 1/2 pints.

    Is it a bit runny? Or is it supposed to firm up? Mine is very runny and I was wondering if that was normal.

      Yes, up to one year. I’d used plastic containers and allow for expansion during freezing.

    I have several questions. Are you using a packet of liquid pectin or dry. how many ounces?
    also are you taking 4 cups of berries and then mashing them. Or are you saying you want 4 cups of mashed blueberries, which would then be from about 8 cups whole?
    I really want to make this recipe, but i don’t want to mess it up.

    Thanks for the recipe. Delicious! Had this at friends house. She purchased it from a market and they were charging 7.50 for a 250 ml jar. So much cheaper to make and I can customize it to my liking. I added half of a habanero pepper along with the jalapeno peppers with the seeds, to kick it up a bit! Perfect!

    Is there a processing time for this recipe as it is not recommended to just pour hot and let seal. I would like a safe recipe for my family.

    Reply
    • Paula says

      07.13.16 at 2:59 pm

      If you boil the jars to sanitize them for canning, it is safe to pour hot jam into them as long as they are still hot when you pour the hot liquid in them. You just should not pour hot liquid into cold jars. Mine are. I boil the jars at the same time I’m making the jam, leave in the hot water until the jam is cooked, and fill immediately. Canning is second nature to me since I’ve helped my Grandmother and mother since I was little. If canning is a new process to you read these articles for help.

          If you read the link it says that you must process for 10 minutes after laddling into hot jars. If you do not process it, they are not shelf stable and must go in the refrigerator. Thanks for the link as it provided the safe instructions to finish your recipe.

        hi, i put the jars in the dishwasher,they are still hot. while i make my jelly/jam the put how many jars with a little water in them and put them in the microwave, i put the lids and rings in a pan a water simmer leaving them in simmer. when jelly/jam is ready i pour the water into the lid/ring pan fill.i use rubber gloves to handle jars and fish the lids out with a fork. wipe around tops with a wet cloth ,seal and cover with a towel. it might sound like extra work but i have done this for 20 years and i can cann all day. i use long gloves, my hand and arms don’t get burned and i like it way better than i was taught. just another way

          One tip I would add (from experience, mind you): don’t leave the lids simmering too long. I did, and it softened them up to the point where they wouldn’t seal.

          So if I am reading your post here, you do not hot water bath your jams/jellies after filling? I have heard of filling hot jars with the jam/jelly products and after capping the jars, they just turn the filled and capped jars jars upside down on a rack with a towel and then turn back upright. They process several types of product this way and never use hot water bath.

      Must jelly recipes require a 5 minute water bath. You should also skim off the scum (foam) that rises to the top before ladling into jars.
