After about 10 days, it's done. One Quart of Vodka, 1 Apricot halved, a little Nutmeg and Cloves. To me it's well worth making.

Chanterelle Jam

2 Cups Finely chopped Chanterelles.
Fill the 2 cup container with the Chanterelles, to the top with water.
Add 1 Tablespoon Lemon Juice.
Add a little less then 1/8 th Teaspoon of Nutmeg
Add 1/8 th Teaspoon of Cinnamon
Put in a Blender or Food Processor on Liquefy
Bring to a Hard Boil.
Add Sugar ( 4 cups ) and bring back to a Hard Boil
Add 2 packet Certo Liquid Fruit Pectin
Bring back to a Hard Boil for 1 minute, then pour into 1/2 pint jars and seal.

I didn’t pressure cook or Hot Pack them so you may want to freeze them to extend the shelf life. Don’t forget to leave headroom if you do freeze them.

I can't imagine what the jam is like. My first reaction was yuck! But who knows.... I don't find chanterelles to have any flavor to begin with I just eat them for the health benefits . I wish I would have read this post awhile back. Not that I've found enough chants to do anything with but now I'm thinking of trying this with other mushrooms.

hmmm...... you got me thinking now
