This is in response to a request on the boards. I haven't tried it yet, but it's making my taste buds water. Can't wait for my blueberries to produce enough fruit so I can make this. Cook time includes processing of filled jars only.
Ingredients:
2 cups water
4 cups sugar
1/3 cup lemon, thinly sliced (about 1/2 large)
1/2 cup orange, thinly sliced (about 1/2 medium)
1/2 cup raisins
1 quart blueberries
Directions:
1. Bring water and sugar to a boil; add lemon, orange and raisins.
2. Simmer 5 minutes.
3. Stir in blueberries.
4. Cook rapidly until thick, about 30 minutes.
5. As mixture thickens, stir frequently to prevent sticking.
6. Ladle hot conserve into hot sterilized jars, leaving 1/4-inch headspace.
7. Adjust two-piece caps.
8. Process 15 minutes in a boiling-water canner.
9. Remove from boiling-water.
10. Cover with dry towel.
11. Let stand until caps seal.
12. Allow to cool completely before moving.
