You poured what through it? Didn't you ruin the pages pouring stuff
while you were poring through the volume?

OB Jam:

Barb Schaller's Spiced Blueberry Jam
posted to rec.food.cooking 7-22-2006

2 cups crushed blueberries (Exactly one pint did it!)
3-1/2 cups sugar
zest from one smallish orange
juice from the orange plus lime juice to make 1/4 cup if shy of the
measure
1/4 tsp ground cinnamon
1/8 tsp ground cloves
1/8 tsp ground nutmeg
1 - 3 oz pouch Ball liquid fruit pectin

Set four half pint jars to boiling.

Combine the blues, the sugar, the orange zest and juice, and the spices
in a large kettle. Cook, stirring to dissolve the sugar and bring to a
boil. Stir in liquid pectin, return to a hard boil and boil for one
minute, stirring constantly. Remove from heat and stir occasionally
for five minutes, jar up, seal and process in a boiling water bath for
10 minutes.

Dayam! This is good enough to eat. :-) Did I mention that I don't eat
the stuff I make? :-) True. There's enough scraped from the pan for a
couple pieces of toast in the morning. It could happen.
