Author Notes: The recipe for this heart-healthy gourmet spread for brunch, tea or bread is from Coastal New England Summertime Cooking, by Sherri Eldridge, who gave us kind permission to run it here.
Ingredients: 1 orange
1 lemon
1/2 cup water
1/4 cup vinegar
3 cups sugar (yes, sugar!)
1/4 cup golden raisins
2 tablespoons freshly grated ginger
2 whole cloves
1/2 teaspoon mace
1 1/2 cups rhubarb, cleaned and finely chopped
Instructions:

Makes 8 Jelly Jars

Seed the orange and lemon. Scoop pulp into saucepan, add water, vinegar, sugar, raisins and ginger. Boil. Tie spices in a cheesecloth and simmer in the syrup for 5 minutes. Stir in rhubarb and cook until thickened. Pack and seal in sterilized jelly jars, leaving 1/2-inch headroom. Place jars on rack in boiler half-filled with boiling water, leaving space between jars. Add boiling water to cover jars 2-inches above their tops, Bring to a boil, cover, and process 10 minutes. Using tongs, lift jars (not by the lids) and set on towels with several inches between them to cool.
