Are you looking for star fruit recipes for jam? Star fruit is also known as carambola, Chinese star fruit or five-angled fruit. Homemade jams made from star fruit are easy to make and better for you as they contain fewer, if any, preservatives. A number of variations of the star fruit jam recipe exist. Some star fruit jam recipes use pectin or additional fruits or fruit juices. Juices used in star fruit jam recipes include lemon or lime. Sugar substitutes, such as honey or artificial sweeteners, can be used as well.

To make star fruit jam, you will need:
50 ounces of star fruit
3 1/2 cups of water

The juice of two lemons

Wash the star fruit. Cut off the winged edges and remove the star fruit's seeds. Place the chopped star fruit in a saucepan.

Pour the jam into sterilized canning jars. Date and label your jars.
