      I added grated dried lemon peel 1/2 teaspoon , subed the lemon juice for pineapple juice because thats what I had on hand and 1/2 teaspoon fresh ground sea salt to help balance the sweet spicy, reduced the sugar 1/2 cup also and turned out perfect! I always use a stick blender after all ingredients are in the pot just to make sure everything is mixed with no pectin clumps.

      Talk about yummy! The fresh ginger is awesome...the pear flavor still shone through. I doubled the recipe and added just 5 cups of sugar, not six. I cut the cardamon in half and found that was enough for our tastes. Also, we just about licked the pan we cooked it in - kind of like cookie dough!

      My husband devours this jam! I used whatever pears I had on hand and substituted the fresh ginger with ground ginger.
      In my opinion this jam tastes a little like Christmas! Great!!!!

      This turned out perfectly! I made a half batch at first that I did not can but just ate right away to test it first. Then I made the full recipe and canned it. Everyone I have given it to has loved it. Especially good on thin homemade pecorino crackers! Thank you for this keeper!

      We made 3 different recipes of pear jam this year, and this one won out by FAR! This jam tastes like fall - I've never cooked very much with cardamon, but it really gives it that special kick that will make all your friends go "WOW! That stuff is awesome!"

      This is an elegant condiment to be sure. I chopped the first 4 cups of pears & then used the Cuisinart slicing blade for the next 2 cups - wafer thin translucent pieces of pear. Used the Cuisinart to finely chop the ginger. Used 1/2 t fresh ground cardamon (trusty mortar & pestle) & 1/8 t cinnamon. Added, by accident, an additional 1/4 cup lemon juice - jam set perfectly & tastes wonderful now & will be even better by Thanksgiving. My jam turned out a pale translucent yellow with thin slices of pear just barely visible. Very pretty - though it will difficult to share. May have to get some more pears on Freecycle - LOL! Thanks for a wonderful recipe that is truly a keeper, Kathy228!

      Wowser! This jam is definitely gourmet status and tastes delicious on freshly baked biscuits or bread. I wish I had made more of it, because my husband is eating it by the jar! The cardamom and ginger combination is such a taste sensation. Thanks for sharing this recipe.
