Pumpkin Jam (very like lemon curd)
4 lbs pumpkin
cold water
1/2lb butter
4 lbs granulated sugar
juice and rind of 4 lemons.
Method:
Remove centre seeds and cut away the peel Chop the flesh and cover with cold water in a large pan. Bring to the boil and simmer until tender about 11minutes. Strain and puree. Return puree to pan and add butter, sugar, finely grated lemon rind and lemon juice. Stir over low heat until sugar has dissolved then bring to the boil and simmer for about 5 minutes. Cool and check for setting. Pour into warm, clean jars and seal.
