Oh yes, my first strawberry jam ended up being syrup too. Lol. We used it for pancakes, ice cream, etc. I figured out that I didn’t bring the batch to a FULL boil that I couldn’t stir down before adding the sugar. We enjoy the Ball low sugar pectin and make several different jams every year. My favorite is low sugar pear jam. Nice to see the no sugar option, and I had no idea about the calcium water. I’ve never used Pomona but now I will definitely try it.

Hello dear Melissa. I am a new gardener and this spring was our first season. Is there a video you've done so I can watch it to learn how to close down my garden for the winter? We've saved a lot for compost since we moved to our first homestead in March of this year. I've got so much to learn and I really like you and I know you've grown up with this all your life. So if you have a couple of videos I can watch on your channel, or tell me what to type in the search, I'd really appreciate it. Thank you for your Scripture readings at the end of your Podcasts. I love the Lord Jesus as well sister. God bless!

Have you a recommendation for powdered stevia extract. I've lived low carb for 4 years now and want to make some jam. I have the Pomona Pectin and will use frozen berries. I'm experience in canning and have made the low-sugar with SureJell. Great video. 😊 I hope you didn't throw out the strawberry "syrup" (my DH would have had a stroke if I thew out something that tastes that good.

Everything was going well until you said stevia I find it has a really bad aftertaste what I use is etherol I'm not sure if I spelled that right which is an alcohol sugar made from fruits which is the closest thing to Sugar that I found that doesn't Spike type 2 diabetes and I'm 90% sure it's the same for type one diabetics as well. Great video I'm going to give this a try with just alcohol sugar.

@mistyfrogskiss4614 Жыл бұрын

If you are interested try some different brands of stevia. Glass bottle liquid of the brand she used or of sweetleaf(not plastic bottle) don't seem to have that aftertaste. It really depends on the brand.

@redhatpat9387 7 ай бұрын

It is my understanding that sugar (sucrose) serves not only as a sweetener in making jams and jellies, but also as a PRESERVATIVE (for the color). This is something that I discovered AFTER making 24 jars of strawberry jam using the low-sugar Sure-Jell pectin which eventually lost their vibrant color and now look a bit on the gray side. Are you saying that a jam made with Pomona's Pectin and NO sugar will keep it's vibrant color??????

Hi! Just curious, if you thought xylitol would work in this recipe. I know you mentioned it was safe....but I wanted to double check. Also, in the video, you stay 1c 1/8 juice and in the recipe it says 3/4 c. juice. I'm sure keeping track of the details is so hard, I'm not criticizing, just clarifying. Which is correct? Thank you so much for posting this!

Just curious, if you triple the recipe and the ratio of sugar to pectin is correct and it's cooked properly then why won't the jam set up? Why wouldn't it work?

@lindsayvlogslife Жыл бұрын

It has to do with how it cooks - you’d need something with a lot more surface area to cook the jam in so that all of it heats through at the same rate. The more jam in your pot, the more likely it is for certain spots to get heated more than others which will lead to a looser set.
