Health and fertility benefits of Nectarine-Ginger Preserves

Lemons can help to prevent oxidative damage to the body, which women with PCOS are often susceptible to.

Ingredients

4 1/2 cups unpeeled and diced nectarines (about 2 1/2 lb.)
1 1/2 cups sugar
1/3 cup minced crystallized ginger
3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1 (1.75-oz.) package powdered fruit pectin

Instructions

Stir together all ingredients in a 4-qt. microwave-safe glass bowl.
Microwave at HIGH 8 minutes (mixture will boil). Stir mixture, and microwave at HIGH 8 to 10 minutes or until thickened. (You're going for the viscosity of pancake syrup here. The mixture will thicken to soft-set preserves after it cools and chills.) Cool mixture completely (about 2 hours). Serve immediately, or cover and chill preserves in an airtight container until ready to serve. Store in refrigerator up to 3 weeks.
