Date Jam

Jam may be made from dates by cooking in the proportion of one pound of stoned fruit to one cup of water and a half-pound of sugar-the sugar to be added after the fruit has simmered about eight minutes. Add with the sugar a teaspoonful of butter and spice, or lemon juice, or other flavouring as one chooses. Cook down until smooth and thick and place in jars.
