Cantaloupe Butter

I haven't made this yet, but found the recipe on www.justfruitrecipes.com. I'm reposting it here since it seems like every time I'm ready to make it and go back to their site, their server is down.

1. Remove the seeds of the cantaloupes and scoop out the edible portion of the pulp.
2. Dice the fruit coarsely and simmer, uncovered, in a preserving kettle until tender; or puree the pulp in a blender.
3. Measure the pulp; there should be 4 cups.
4. Return pulp to the preserving kettle and add the sugar, lemon juice, and nutmeg.
