Cook up a small batch of hibiscus jam in less than an hour with this recipe. Makes about 6 oz INGREDIENTS: 4 cups fresh, whole hibiscus flowers (Hibiscus Sabdariffa) 1/2 cup sugar 1/2 cup water Method: Separate the red hibiscus sepals from the green inner seedpods. Discard the seed pods. You will be left with about 2 cups of red sepals. Rinse and place in a medium sized pot. Add the sugar and water. Heat gently, stir to prevent scorching. Cook for 20 minutes until the hibiscus sepals are soft and the liquid is reduced, thickened and no longer saucy. Cool enough to ladel into a clean glass jar. Store in the refrigerator. Keeps for weeks!
