Ingredients
  • Juice of 1 lemon
  • 2 pounds pears
  • 3 cups sugar (preferably pectin enriched)
  • 1/3 pound bittersweet chocolate, chopped (makes about 1 cup)

Directions
  1. Put a small plate in your freezer.
  2. Pour the lemon juice in a bowl.
  3. Peel and core the pears. Dice them and mix the pieces in the bowl with the lemon juice.
  4. In a large saucepan mix the pears and sugar and bring to a boil under medium-high heat. Cook for 20 to 30 minutes, stirring occasionally and foaming if necessary.
  5. To check if it is set, pour a little jam on your cold plate. Wait for a few second and see if it doesn’t run, it is set, otherwise, keep on cooking and try again a few minutes later.
  6. Stir the chocolate into the jam, wait for a simmer then turn the heat off.
  7. Put in jars and cover (or can following National Center for Home Food Preservation recommendations).
