Steps:

- Place half the pears and all of the apples into a preserving pan, with just enough water to cover the fruit, and simmer gently until soft and mushy (about 40 mins)
- Remove from the heat, add the sugar, pectin, ginger, lemon juice and zest, also add the rest of the chopped pears. Put the pan back on the heat and dissolve sugar gently.

APPLE OR PEAR GINGER JAM
Old Victorian recipe from my grandmother. It works well with pears too if you get a bumper crop. Original was in imperial measure. Ginger can vary in intensity so taste and try before adding. Use as a tangy jam or in tartlets.
