CHELSEA: We would recommend fresh apricots for the best taste, however, yes, you can use tinned apricots for apricot jam. Just note that the texture and flavour will be a bit different from fresh apricots. Tinned apricots are already soft and may be packed in syrup or juice. This means you’ll need to change the sugar amount in your recipe. If they are in syrup, cut back on the sugar to keep the jam from being too sweet. Also, since tinned apricots have more water, you might need to cook the jam a little longer to get the right thickness., approved=true, user_name=Sharmane, hs_createdate=1742420570956, rating_new__1_5_=4, id=25374241794}, {comment_text=Such an easy recipe and the result tastes soo delicious., approved=true, user_name=Carol, hs_createdate=1740539464332, rating_new__1_5_=5, id=24488595594}, {approved=true, user_name=Ev, hs_createdate=1736957430563, rating_new__1_5_=5, id=22620878777}, {comment_text=Looks easy - off to buy some apricots :-), approved=true, user_name=Pam Hart, hs_createdate=1736810579608, rating_new__1_5_=5, id=22550519043}, {comment_text=The only recipe I use now to make apricot jam., approved=true, user_name=Sandy, hs_createdate=1736501976611, rating_new__1_5_=5, id=22338825859}, {comment_text=Just made this, so easy and great result, boiled for 5 mins and added squeeze lemon jiuce, made six medium jars.

Method

Crush the apricots with a potato masher or blender.
Place the crushed apricots in a 6 litre heavy-based saucepan. Add the Chelsea Jam Setting Sugar. Heat gently, stirring continuously, until the sugar dissolves.
Add the knob of butter. Still stirring, increase the heat and bring to a full boil (a boil that cannot be stirred down). Boil for 4 minutes only.
Remove from the heat, skim off any foam, and test for set. Bottle into sterilised jars immediately.
Makes 4 medium jars.
