Jam making advice please

I made some quince jam yesterday but don't think I boiled it for long enough. It has not set.:confused:
Can I empty it back into the pan and re-boil it? Though I would add a bit more jam sugar and try it but advice greatly appreciated.
Thank you for this site :jNow OH and I are both retired, MSE is a Godsend

  • You can reboil it ;) Did you add lemon juice ? That helps it set. Tree quinces are high in pectin. I'm not sure about japonica quinces (from a bush).

    I made quince jelly this year and I think I boiled it for a good 20 mins. When I potted it it seemed pretty runny, but I stored it on a shelf in the garage and it had firmed up by the next day.
