Directions
- Combine all ingredients in a med large cooking pot with lid, and bring to a boil.
Turn down and simmer over low heat, being careful to stir frequently to prevent burning. This can take 1-2 hours. (You can process in a “Hot Pot” or pressure cooker and cut the process down to about 30 minutes.)
When desired consistency is reached, you can ladle into hot canning jars to be used at a later time.
California farmers produce fresh, high-quality fruits, nuts, vegetables, proteins and fibers right in our own backyard. It takes water to grow the food we love and farming and ranching are pivotal to the health and stability of our state.
