Instructions

1. 1 Inspect 6 (½-pint) 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.
2. 2 Combine zucchini and sugar in a large pot over medium heat until sugar has dissolved and mixture begins to boil, about 10 minutes. Stir in gelatin and lemon juice; continue simmering, 5 minutes more, stirring constantly.
3. 3 Pack jam into hot, sterilized jars, filling to within ¼-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.
4. 4 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 boiling water using a holder. Pour in more boiling water to cover jars by at least 2 inches. Bring to a rolling boil, cover, and process for 10 minutes.
5. 5 Remove jars from the stockpot; cool, spaced several inches apart, to room temperature, 4 hours or longer. 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. Refrigerate any jars that do not seal.
