Holiday Red Onion Jam

Place sliced onions in a medium-sized cooking pot. Add apple juice, both vinegars, sage, pepper, salt and pectin. Stir well. Bring to full, rolling boil stirring constantly. Add white and brown sugars and stir well with a whisk. Bring to boil again and boil for about 3-5 minutes. Remove from heat.

Now you have to decide if you are going to can the jam or just put it in containers to refrigerate. I am not a canner, so I opt to pour it in glass jars or containers with tight-fitting lids, cool to room temperature and then refrigerate. Mixture will thicken as it cools. Once cooled, refrigerate until ready to use. Serve as an accompaniment to meats or roasts, or as a spread over cream or goat cheese for an appetizer. It would also be delicious spread over boneless, skinless chicken breasts before baking or grilling.

If you opt to can this jam, then pour mixture into sterilized jars immediately after removing from stove. Fill to within 1/4 inch of the tops and then follow the guidelines for canning that you normally do for jams and jellies.
