Title: Wild Blueberry Jam
Categories: Jam
Yield: 1 Servings

2	lb	Wild blueberries, washed and
		Drained
5		Lemons - juice and pulp
		(about 1 cup)
1	c	Water
4	c	Sugar

Combine water & berries in a large pan. Bring to a boil - mash some of the berries. Add sugar and lemon juice/pulp. Boil until jelling point is reached (I use the saucer in the freezer test). Ladle into hot, sterilized jars leaving 1/2 inch headspace. Adjust 2 piece lids and process in a boiling water bath for 15 minutes.

Notes: I had hoped for more of a lemon flavor so next time I will use the zest of the lemons. Also, I am at 2000 feet above sea level so the processing time may need to be adjusted for your altitude.
