Blueberry, Lemon, Basil Jam
3 Cups of Sugar (I used cane sugar)
6 Cups of Blueberries
2 Tablespoons of Lemon Juice
Zest from 1 lemon
10 Basil Leaves
Add all ingredients to a pot on medium heat on the stove. Once the blueberries start to pop blend (I used an emersion blender) Bring to a low boil and cook for 15 min. Test doneness by dipping in a cold spoon if the jam sticks to the spoon its done. Add jam to clean warm jars making sure to clean the rims before placing on the lids. fill jars leaving 1/2 inch head space. Water Bath for 10 min. Leave on the counter undisturbed over night. Check to make sure jars sealed before adding them to the pantry.
