Kiwi Mango Jam
3 cups chopped kiwi, app 6 large kiwis 3 cups chopped mango, 3 to 4 medium mangos 2 tbsp lemon juice 1 pkg (57g) pectin crystals 5 cups granulated sugar
In a dutch oven or large heavy-bottomed pot, mix together kiwis, mangos and lemon juice.
Stir in pectin; bring to a full boil over high heat, stirring constantly.
Stir in sugar; return to full boil, stirring constantly. Boil hard for 1 minute, stirring constantly.
Remove from heat; skim off any foam. Stir for 5 to 7 minutes (this will prevent floating fruit).
Ladle into sterilized jars to within 1/4" of rim; wipe rims. Apply prepared lids and rings; tighten rings just until fingertip tight.
Process jars in boiling water canner for 5 minutes.
Let rest at room temperature until set (I use the usual 24 hours). Check seals; refrigerate any unsealed jars for up to 3 weeks.
Makes about 6 250 ml jars.

Green or the ripe yellow mangoes? We normally use the latter for shakes and baking.

Done. It's in 'food' under pickles, relish and condiments. I've used it as a condiment for meats, poured over cream cheese (you have to mush it up a bit) to go with crackers as an appetizer, and as a condiment for my fresh spring rolls.

Checked it out. Thanks! Hubby would surely love it.
Just one more question. What is "blush wine?" Can you give me examples of cheap sweet wine? As you noticed, I'm not exactly a wine connoisseur, LOL

"Blush" is anything that's pink. They are usually a sweet wine. The people in the LCBO and wine stores can be very helpful if you tell them why you want it. If you don't want to ask for help then look for wine that is not mark as "DRY".

But I may half the recipe.  Not a good idea because of the pectin. It may not set. Do the full recipe and give some jars away as Christmas gifts.
