Preparation

Step 1

Combine all ingredients in a large saucepan. Cook slowly, stirring often, until tender and slightly thickened (about 35 to 40 minutes).

Fill jars with hot mixture, leaving 1/2 inch headspace. Remove air bubbles. Wipe jar rims. Adjust lids and process in a boiling water bath. Process pints or quarts 15 minutes for elevations of 1,000 feet or less. Process 20 minutes for elevations of 1,001 to 6,000 feet or 25 minutes for elevations above 6,000 feet.
