Apricot and Ginger Jam

Ingredients:
apricots, dried, sulfured, uncooked
sugars, granulated
lemon juice, raw
spices, ginger, ground
butter, without salt

Directions:
Wash, chop and de-stone apricots.
Have jars sterilized in preparation.
Measure 8 cups of chopped apricots into a large stock pot, along with the 4 cups of sugar, 1/2 cup lemon juice, and grated ginger.
Bring to a boil over a high heat, stirring occasionally.
Once at a rolling boil, turn down the heat to keep it at a controlled boil for 23 minutes, stirring often to prevent sticking.
Note: It should be bubbling, not simmering.
Start your timer when it begins to boil and at this stage add the 1 tablespoon of butter.
At the end of 23 minutes it should have reduced down to a thick, sticky consistency but will still slide easily off the spoon.
Don't worry, it will thicken as it cools.
Jar while it is still warm and moves easily.
