Grandma Howard's Tomato Jam

1/2 Orange
1/2 Lemon
3 c Tomatoes, peeled, chopped - about 1 3/4 lb
1 pack Pectin crystals, 57 g
4 1/2 c Sugar, granulated

from Brian Loewen, Toronto First prize Winner Relishes, Pickles, Jams
and Preserves

"This recipe has been in the family since my great grandmother begun making it as a frugal jam for her family. Generations of
Loewen/Howard women have made it as a mainstay of family breakfasts. My father particularly enjoyed the jam, but with a family of three sons, there seemed to be no one to carry on the tradition. That changed however, when my brother presented my father with a year's supply of tomato jam one Christmas. These are, after all, the 90s."

Halve and seed orange and lemon. In food processor, finely chop fruit with rind. Transfer to heavy saucepan; add tomatoes and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer for 10 minutes or until rind is tender. Stir in pectin. Return to boil & boil for 1 minute, stirring. Stir in sugar & bring to a full rolling boil. Boil, stirring, for 1 minute.
Remove from heat and skim off foam. Pour into hot sterilized jars, leaving 1/4 inch headspace. Seal jars; process in boiling water bath for 10 minutes. Store in cool, dark, dry place. MAKES: ABOUT 5 CUPS
