The skins from stone fruit will contribute color and flavor to the jam. But for a smoother mixture, you can start by peeling nectarines: Carve an X in the bottom of each and plunge them into boiling water for 30 seconds, then transfer them to an ice-water bath to stop the cooking; the skins will slip off.

Time 45m

Yield Makes about 5 cups

Number Of Ingredients 5

2 1/4 pounds nectarines, pitted
12 ounces raspberries
1 1/2 pounds sugar (3 1/3 cups)
Coarse salt
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice

Steps:

  • Stir together fruit, sugar, and 1/4 teaspoon salt in a large heavy-bottomed pot. Bring to a boil, stirring until sugar is dissolved and mashing fruit with a potato masher. Add lemon juice; continue to boil, stirring frequently, until bubbles slow, chunks of fruit show at top, and mixture clings to a spoon but falls off in clumps, 10 to 12 minutes. Skim foam from top.
  • Ladle jam into clean containers, leaving 3/4 inch of headroom. Let cool completely. Cover, label, and refrigerate up to 1 month, or freeze up to 1 year.
