Jam Course Hints For Best Results
• Do not reduce sugar or use sugar substitutes. Exact amounts of sugar, fruit,
and other ingredients are necessary for good set.
• Use only ripe fruit (not overripe or underripe) for best flavor.
• Do not puree fruit. Drain cubed fruit before crushing. Crush with potato
masher or food processor. Jam should have bits of fruit in it.
• Recipes should not exceed 3 cups fruit.
• Be sure to measure fruit AFTER is crushed, not before.
• Remove stems, seeds or pits from fruit before crushing.
• You may use strawberries, blackberries, raspberries or other thin skinned
berries. Fruit such as peaches, pears and apricots may be used, but should be
peeled and have seeds removed.
• Frozen berries or fruit (no sugar added) may be substituted for fresh. Thaw
and drain before measuring. For thinner jam, use juice as part of 3 cups of
berry or fruit amount.
• Lemon juice adds necessary acid to berries or fruit.
• You may decrease amount of sugar, but it will produce a thinner result.
More sugar will make it thicker. For best results, sugar substitutes are not
recommended.
• Average refrigerated life of jam is 2 weeks or up to several months frozen.
