  • It only lasts for a month in the fridge so if you won't use it within that time period, I would keep it in the freezer for up to 6 months.

  • Actually, we don't have cavities in my family. However, the great thing about this is that you can find a way that works for your family. There are a lot of different kinds of pectins you can try. However, as mentioned before, I would follow the recipe exactly since it definitely matters how and what kind of sugar and acid you put in for the jam to gel correctly.

  • No you can't adjust the sugar for this particular kind of pectin. It's a pretty exact science for making it gel you need an acid (lemon juice) and sugar. There are, however, brands of MCP pectin that require less sugar.

  • I love you. Thank you for the social support :)

  • You also keep the nutrients of the jam .

  • Yes, how'd you know... I'm scared of canning!! Thanks for the upload.

  • Fantastic way to introduce a novel way to make jam :o)

    BTW... your eyes are going to be like my jam....

    Amazing!

    Seriously though, I've just picked 4.5Lb of blackberries from my garden, and wish to do something special with them.. thanks for the upload!

  • This was awesome! I hate 9 minute videos. 5 minutes went by before I even looked at the jam. You have a wonderful personality to watch, and a voice that is very pleasing. My only question, can I use glass in the freezer. One more google before I make a batch of your freezer jam, with home grown strawberries!. Thanks

  • A great way to hull the strawberries is with a large star tip for cake decorating. Great videos, I love them going through them all. I need to revamp my food storage ideas. I appreciate your efforts, it is a great help!

  • I love canning. Next week I'm going to get together with my friend and make apricot preserves from apricots that we froze this summer. I hope more people try making jam because you show how easy this is.

  • After setting the jam, can you move it to the fridge or is it to be kept in the freezer?
