When I saw the contest was all about grapes I had to smile for the last week I have been making concord grape jam, first let me say I am not an adept canner or preserver, truth be told I have never done it before. This is a quick jam that sets in the refrigerator, I don't use pectin or any thickener just concord grapes, sugar, water and lemon juice. This jam is wonderful with an intense grape flavor that is unmistakably concord grapes. I have always loved grape jam and grew up on Welches and this is so much better, my grand daughter proclaimed that it's the best she has ever tasted. This recipe is so simple, almost too simple and I almost didn't enter it but thought why not its really good. If you know how to process jam by all means do it, this should be used within a month or so it never lasts longer than a week in my house.
