Notes: Judy shared this delicious Jam that her mother made. I had never made Pear/Ginger Jam before and we weren’t sure about how to add the Lemons, so I tested the recipe. It is just delicious. I left the pulp on because my Pears had a beautiful blush color. Next time I make it I will use the Lemon pulp to make it like a marmalade
