Use for your favorite pizza recipe.

Aunt Linda's Jam
Ingredients
4 cups of fruit
3 cups of sugar
(I like to stick the fruit and sugar in the blender to make it more of a smooth jam then chunky)
Boil on medium heat (uncovered) in a heavy pot, mashing with potato masher. After it is smooth you can stir with a spoon, mixing from the bottom often. Probably close to 20 minutes, till the jam thickens and sheets off a metal spoon. That's where it falls in one drip instead of 2 or 3. Then pour it into hot bottles, 1/4 inch from the top. and seal with hot boiling lids (from a small pot of water boiling on the stove).
Cool on counter till the lids all pop. And if one does not seal, just use it first.
Refrigerate after opening
