I found this recipe in a super old cookbook of my Grandmother's called Cooking Scandinavian. The cookbook was badly water damaged and covered in mold and ickiness, so I was only able to grab a couple of recipes from it. This was one of them. Apparently it is a traditional Norwegian recipe, and it turned out really amazing! I didn't make any changes except to use a whole lemon instead of 1/2, but otherwise I followed the recipe exactly.
Orange Rhubarb Raspberry Jam
2 oranges
1/2 lemon (I used a whole lemon)
Water
1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
1/3 cup water
1 pound rhubarb, cut into 1/2 inch pieces
1 cup raspberries
1 cup granulated sugar
Cover oranges and lemon with water. Cover and simmer 3 hours. Let fruits stand in water overnight. Next day, cut fruits in quarters. Spoon out pulp and save; discard seeds. Cut peel into fine, even slivers. Combine pulp, peel, the 1 1/2 cups sugar, and the 1/3 cup water. Simmer 45 minutes, or until liquid is honey-like in consistency, stirring constantly. Meanwhile, in another saucepan, combine rhubarb, raspberries, and the 1 cup sugar. Slowly bring to a boil, stirring. Continue to cook, stirring, until thick. Combine rhubarb mixture thoroughly with orange mixture. Heat to a full rolling boil. ladle into hot sterilized glasses and seal. Makes about four 8 ounce glasses.
Enjoy! -Cardamommy
