👨‍🍳 Instructions

1. 1

   {'id': 'step_0', 'step': 1, 'text': 'Inspect 6 (½-pint) jars for cracks and rings for rust, discarding any defective ones. Immerse in simmering water until jam is ready. Wash new, unused lids and rings in warm soapy water.'}

2. 2

   {'id': 'step_1', 'step': 2, 'text': 'Combine zucchini and sugar in a large pot over medium heat until sugar has dissolved and mixture begins to boil, about 10 minutes. Stir in gelatin and lemon juice; continue simmering, 5 minutes more, stirring constantly.'}

3. 3

   {'id': 'step_2', 'step': 3, 'text': 'Pack jam into hot, sterilized jars, filling to within ¼-inch of the top.

4. 4

   {'id': 'step_3', 'step': 4, 'text': 'Place a rack in the bottom of a large stockpot and fill halfway with water. Bring to a boil and lower jars 2 inches apart into boiling water using a holder.

5. 5

   {'id': 'step_4', 'step': 5, 'text': 'Remove jars from the stockpot; cool, spaced several inches apart, to room temperature, 4 hours or longer.
