In a heavy-bottomed 8- to 10-quart pan, mix cherries, lemon juice, kirsch,
cinnamon and pectin. Bring to a full rolling boil over high heat, stirring
constantly. Quickly add sugar, still stirring. Return to a full rolling
boil; then boil, stirring, for 2 minutes. (if using a 2-oz box of pectin,
boil for 4 minutes.) Remove from heat and skim off any foam.
Ladle hot jam into hot, sterilized half-pint jars, leaving 1/4 inch
headspace. Wipe rims and threads clean; top with hot lids, then firmly
screw on bands. Process in boiling water canner for 5 minutes. Or omit
processing and ladle into freezer jars or freezer containers, leaving
1/2-inch headspace; apply lids. Let stand for 12 to 24 hours at room
tempera- ture; freeze or refrigerate. Makes about 5 half-pints.
Storage time. Processed: Up to 1 year. Unprocessed: Up to 1 month in
refrigerator; up to 1 year in freezer.
