I remember my Mom making what she called Pear Jam, so I looked up the recipe. I haven't made it in years, but it was my favorite and is a lot like the one Suzanne sent.
Pear Jam
Grind 1/2 peck Pears. Add 5 lbs. sugar and let stand over night. Grind 4 oranges, everything but the pulp. With 1 lb. raisins, juice skimmed off pears, orange and rind, simmer for 20 to 30 minutes. Cook pears and orange mixture until thick. Add nuts (Walnuts or Pecans) and put in jars. I can't remember how much! But the nuts make it taste extra good.
