1. Peel, core, and chop up 8 cup of apples. I prefer to use a sweet apple so I don't need to add as much sugar. My favorite apple for baking and cooking is a Gravenstein and that's what you see featured here.
2. Place it in a big old stainless steel pot and add 8 Tablespoons bottled lemon juice and 1 cup water. Bring to a boil and cook for 10 minutes until apples are soft.
3. Add 4 teaspoons of calcium water (comes in the Pomona Pectin and activates the pectin). Boil for 1 more minute.
4. Add your spices and the sugar mixed with the powdered pectin. Return to a boil and stir constantly (because burnt sugar is so not wanted here) for 2 minutes. You'll see and feel the mixture start to thicken up. Take it off the heat.

1. Peel, core, and dice the apples. (Be sure to chop the fruit into small chunks, about 1/4 to 1/2 inch cubes, as they'll remain close to that size in the finished jam.)
2. Toss the chopped apples in lemon juice and sugar, cover, and refrigerate for overnight (12 to 24 hours). This step is important, and at an absolute minimum, they need 4 hours, preferably more. Macerating the fruit in sugar helps it retain a chunky texture, rather than turn into applesauce.
3. Prepare a water bath canner (if canning, skip for a freezer jam).
4. Place the apple mixture into a heavy-bottomed saucepan and bring to a boil over high heat. The mixture will foam, so be sure your pan is big enough to handle foaming to avoid overflows.
