Ingredients

• ✓ white sugar
• muscadine grape

Instructions

1. 1 Inspect four 8-ounce jars (or two 16-ounce jars) for cracks and rings for rust, discarding any defective ones. Immerse in simmering water until jam is ready. Wash new, unused lids and rings in warm, soapy water. Place a few small plates in the freezer.
2. 2 Wash and halve grapes. Combine grapes and sugar in a large pot over medium heat; bring to a medium-low boil. Cook, stirring to prevent sticking while maintaining a medium-low boil, 15 to 20 minutes.
3. 3 Check doneness by dropping a small spoonful of jam onto a frozen plate. Let sit for 1 to 2 minutes; if jam appears to gel, it is ready. Continue cooking if jam appears thin and runny.
4. 4 Transfer some jam to a blender; purée until hulls and seeds are ground. Transfer puréed jam to a medium pot; keep warm. Continue blending remaining mixture and adding to pot as it becomes done.
5. 5 Pack jam into hot, sterilized jars, filling to within 1/4 inch of the top. Run a clean knife or thin spatula around the insides of the jars to remove any air bubbles. Wipe rims with a moist paper towel to remove any residue. Top with lids and screw rings on tightly.
6. 6 Place a rack in the bottom of a large stockpot and fill halfway with water. Bring to a boil and lower jars 2 inches apart into the boiling water using a holder. Pour in more boiling water to cover jars by at least 1 inch. Bring to a rolling boil, cover, and process for 5 to 10 minutes.
7. 7 Remove the jars from the stockpot and let rest, several inches apart, for 12 to 24 hours. Press the center of each lid with a finger to ensure the lid does not move up or down. Remove the rings for storage and store in a cool, dark area.
