Spicy Cranberry Jam

Thanksgiving is just around the corner and I have started to prepare for the big feast. We're invited to the Baklid's so I'm just bringing some side-dishes like this Spicy Cranberry Jam. Instead of using fresh cranberries I used the leftovers (mush) from my Cranberry Jelly.

Ingredients;


1 1/2 cups water
1 1/2 pounds fresh cranberries, rinsed and drained
2 cups sugar
1 jalapeno chile, finely julienned (ribs and seeds removed for less heat...if desired)

Bring water to a boil in a saucepan. Add cranberries, sugar and jalapeno. Simmer until berries start to pop and mixture thickens, about 15 minutes. Immediately transfer to sterilized jars.
