For every 2 (8 oz) half pints of jam, you will need:
1 2/3 c prepared fruit ( there is a table also about the types of fruit):
* 1 c Crushed Strawberries, 2/3 c finely chopped Rhubarb
2/3 c granulated sugar, Splenda, No calorie sweetener, granulated
2 Tbsp ball Real Fruit Instant Pectin
1 Tbsp Bottled juice, use only with peaches ( I used it with all especially my bananas.. I did not want brown!!)
Now it has little pictures to follow and is super easy, basically mix the sugar and pectin stir in prepared fruit mix for 3 min and put into jars. Wait 30 min seal and store. Super simple.
The bold is the amounts I used for the 2 flavored jam I prepared, the other combos I have so far made are as follows:
1 c chopped Apricots 2/3 c strawberries1 c strawberries, 2/3 c mashed banana
1 c strawberries, 2/3 c chopped kiwi
1 c strawberries, 2/3 c crushed pineapple ( I only had canned tidbit pineapple, I would suggest just using the crushed if you are going to go buy it.
My thinking that as long as I have the amount of fruit required any flavor combo will work. So far they have, the strawberry kiwi has been tested by a friend and she ate the whole jar :D. SO I take that as a success, the rest are happy in my freezer! I love to can, but since I do not seem to have enough people to just give it away or the space to store I can get my jam fix (making it that is) the freezer way and at least play with flavor combos!
